Multiplex droplet digital polymerase chain reaction for rapid diagnosing suspected bloodstream infections in patients with hematologic malignancies

Puntos clave

• Diagnosing bloodstream infections rapidly can enhance treatment effectiveness, particularly in vulnerable patients.
• The analysis demonstrated that ddPCR improves detection speed compared to conventional methods.
• This approach utilizes multiplex ddPCR technology for simultaneous analysis of multiple pathogens.
• Potential benefits are significant for patients with hematologic malignancies, who often face severe infection risks.
