Rapid Identification of Pathogens in Blood Cultures with a Modified Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization Assay

ABSTRACT We evaluated a modified fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay for rapid (<1 h) identification of microorganisms in growth-positive blood cultures. The results were compared to those of the standard FISH technique and conventional culturing. The rapid identification of microorganisms with modified FISH can have important effects on clinical management of patients with bloodstream infections.
