Real‐World Evaluation of a Rapid Multiplex <scp>PCR</scp> Panel in Adults Hospitalized With <scp>COPD</scp> Exacerbations
FAPP significantly enhances microbial detection in patients with ECOPD. Appropriate utilization of FAPP might guide antibiotic decision-making and phenotyping in ECOPD. The potential of sputum multiplex PCR-based strategy to guide antibiotic decisions in ECOPD merits further research.
