Prospective Exploratory Evaluation of Cepheid Xpert <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> Host Response Cartridge: A Focus on Adolescents and Young Adults
While the Xpert-MTB-HR does not meet World Health Organization minimum criteria in the general population, in our study it does meet the minimum sensitivity and specificity requirements for a non-sputum-based triage test among adolescents and young adults when compared to Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra or bacteriological confirmation.
