Nasal swab versus nasopharyngeal aspirate for isolation of respiratory viruses.

Terho Heikkinen1, Jane Marttila, Aimo A Salmi, Olli Ruuskanen.   

Abstract

To determine the usefulness of nasal swabs as a simple method for detection of respiratory viruses, we compared nasal swabs and nasopharyngeal aspirates obtained at the same time from the opposite nostrils of 230 children with upper respiratory infection. The sensitivity of nasal swabs was comparable to that of nasopharyngeal aspirates for the detection of all major respiratory viruses except respiratory syncytial virus.
