pubmed:abstractText |
Pleural empyema is an increasingly reported complication of pneumonia in children. Microbiological diagnostic tests for empyema by culture frequently have false-negative results due to previous administration of antibiotics. Molecular diagnosis by broad-range 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and rapid pneumococcal antigen detection are reliable tools, but their diagnostic value has not been clearly established for pleural fluid samples. Pneumococcal antigen detection has only been validated for urine and cerebrospinal fluid samples.
