Diagnosing Pneumonia in Real Time: Rapid Diagnostic Tests as Game-Changers in Management Strategies
Abstract
This review explores the transformative impact of rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) on pneumonia management. Pneumonia, a global health challenge, often requires swift identification of causative pathogens for effective treatment. Traditional diagnostic methods, while valuable, have limitations, prompting the rise of RDTs. The review highlights the advantages, challenges, and future directions of RDTs, emphasizing their potential to provide real-time pathogen identification, improve treatment strategies, and enhance patient care in the context of pneumonia.
Keywords:
