摘要:
Paired nasopharyngeal aspirate (NPA) and midturbinate flocked-swab specimens from 153 children with respiratory symptoms were examined by the direct fluorescent antibody (DFA) technique. Seventy-four infants (49%) had a viral infection documented by DFA. The flocked-swab specimens had 93% sensitivity and 96.7% agreement with the NPA specimens, with a kappa coefficient of 93.4% (95% confidence interval, 0.877, 0.991).
