Diagnostic Challenges in Detecting Rubella Viral RNA in Cases of Congenital Rubella Syndrome Using RT-PCR in the Era of Elimination
The present study underscores the critical need for a multifaceted approach for accurately diagnosing CRS, particularly in the context of rubella elimination efforts. RT-PCR testing can be particularly useful for diagnosing CRS in patients over 12 months of age. By addressing the challenges and building upon the insights gained from our research, healthcare systems can enhance CRS diagnosis, guide timely interventions and ultimately contribute to the global rubella.
