About this study

Multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label trial to assess if semiquantitative multiplex PCR assay, as compared to conventional microbiology, can reduce the percentage of patients without microbiological diagnosis in the first 24 hours from HAP/VAP suspicion, thus allowing early de-escalation.

This description comes directly from the study's public registry record.
