An Evaluation of a Molecular Point‐of‐Care Testing System Designed for Early Diagnosis of Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infections

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
On the basis of RT‐qPCR results, 549 oropharyngeal swabs were classified into four groups: MP‐positive (n = 109), MP‐negative (n = 160), RSV‐positive (n = 122), and RSV‐negative (n = 158). Using these as the reference standard, we evaluated a molecular point‐of‐care testing (mPOCT) system (EasyNAT) for simultaneous MP and RSV detection.
