Clinical impact of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid metagenomic next-generation sequencing in immunocompromised patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia in ICU: a multicenter retrospective study

This study indicates that ICU patients with SCAP, particularly those who are immunocompromised, are more likely to have polymicrobial infections. mNGS in BALF provides rapid and comprehensive pathogen profiling of pulmonary infections, thereby having a positive impact on both the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of immunocompromised patients with SCAP.

This study indicates that ICU patients with SCAP, particularly those who are immunocompromised, are more likely to have polymicrobial infections. mNGS in BALF provides rapid and comprehensive pathogen profiling of pulmonary infections, thereby having a positive impact on both the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of immunocompromised patients with SCAP.
