Enterovirus RNA [Presence] in Pericardial fluid by NAA with probe detection

EV RNA Pcar Ql NAA+probe

Definition

Viral infections are a common cause of pericarditis, and enteroviruses, including coxsackieviruses and echoviruses, are one of the viral etiologies associated with viral pericarditis. [PMID: 25015496] This test can be used to screen for enteroviral pericarditis, and if enterovirus RNA is present further testing may be done to determine the specific agent.
