Metagenomic analysis of respiratory samples from a COVID-19 ICU patient
As part of the DISCOVER study (DIagnostic and Severity markers of COVID-19 to Enable Rapid triage, REC: 20/YH/0121) COVID-19 patients were recruited and respiratory samples collected. One patient developed a recurring ventilator associated pneumonia during his stay in the ICU (Southmead Hospital, North Bristol NHS Trust) that acquired increasing levels of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in response to treatment. The DNA from endotrachael tube aspirates (ETTs) collected from this patient were extracted and sequenced.
