NCT06307405

Brief Summary

Retrospective analysis of clinical data from 50 hospital-admitted patients with suspected pulmonary infection (as judged by clinical manifestations and imaging findings) was performed on study participants who had collected two different samples of alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and sputum and underwent metagenomic next generation sequencing (mNGS) and routine pathogen detection, respectively. The positive rate of pathogen detection and the consistency of pathogen detection results of the two detection methods were compared to evaluate the clinical manifestation and role of mNGS in pathogen diagnosis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Etiological detection rates of two detection techniques

    Study participants who had collected two different samples of alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and sputum and underwent metagenomic next generation sequencing (mNGS) and routine pathogen detection, respectively, compared the positive rates of pathogen detection by the two detection methods

    From January 1, 2020 to October 31, 2023

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Consistency of detection results of two detection techniques

    From January 1, 2020 to October 31, 2023

Study Arms (1)

pulmonry infection group

50 cases of suspected pulmonary infection (based on clinical manifestations and imaging findings). These patients have collected two different samples of alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and sputum and have undergone metagenomic next generation sequencing (mNGS) and routine pathogen detection, respectively.

Diagnostic Test: next generation sequencing

Interventions

All the enrolled patients had undergone fiberbronchoscopy and sputum had been retained. The collected alveolar lavage fluid and sputum were examined for mNGS and routine etiology, respectively

Also known as: mNGS
pulmonry infection group

Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

Patients whose symptoms, signs, imaging, and infection indicators met the diagnostic criteria for pulmonary infection while routine etiological detection of sputum and pulmonary alveolar lavage fluid mNGS were performed.
