Cerebrospinal fluid cytochemical parameters as predictors of FilmArray Meningitis/Encephalitis panel positivity: a diagnostic stewardship approach in immunocompetent and immunocompromised patients

Infectious meningoencephalitis requires prompt diagnosis to reduce mortality and neurological sequelae. The FilmArray Meningitis/Encephalitis (FAME) panel has improved pathogen detection, but its indiscriminate use raises cost-effectiveness concerns. Because FAME is itself an imp...
