Rapid diagnosis of respiratory syncytial virus infection by using Pernasal swabs.

P L Mackie1, P J Madge, S Getty, J Y Paton.   

Abstract

The sensitivity and specificity of direct immunofluorescence microscopy performed on Pernasal swab specimens and compared with those of nasopharyngeal aspirates were 93 and 99%, respectively. Posterior nasopharyngeal swabs applied immediately to microscope slides allow a rapid and simple screening procedure for the diagnosis of acute respiratory syncytial virus infections.
