| Research Abstract |
Using a quantitative Baysian analysis as a clinical epidemiological approach, we developed a diagnostic strategy for lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) caused by MRSA. These probabilistic diagnoses were closely corroborated with clinical diagnosis by infection control team. The diagnostic probabilities of MRSA-LRTI were reproducible, and reliable, hence it can be applied to the daily clinical practice of infection control and prevention in general medical centers.
