Figure Lengend Snippet: Proportion of bacteria detected at culture threshold categorized by FA-PP semi-quantitative results (DNA Copies/ml) for initial (Day 0) and follow-up samples. Culture diagnostic thresholds were defined as follows: BAL ≥ 104 CFU/ml, mini-BAL ≥ 103 CFU/ml, ETA ≥ 105 CFU/ml. For each FA-PP semi-quantitative category (DNA copies/ml), the proportion of bacteria detected at or above the culture threshold is shown by sample type and timepoint: Day 0 for BAL, mini-BAL, and ETA ( A – D ), and follow-up ETA ( E ) FA-PP FilmArray® Pneumonia+ panel, BAL bronchoalveolar lavage, CFU colony-forming unit, D0 Day 0
Article Snippet: Among these, the FilmArray ® Pneumonia + panel (FA-PP, BioFire, bioMérieux) stands out for its rapid turnaround time of 75 min.
