Abstract:
Pertussis is an acute respiratory tract infectious disease caused by Bordetella pertussis, which is transmitted through airborne droplets and infects humans. The premise of the standardized treatment of pertussis is to identify infected people early, timely, and accurately. Laboratory testing and quality management have important clinical value for diagnosing and monitoring pertussis. The China Maternal and Child Health Care Association Clinical Diagnosis and Experimental Medicine Branch organized experts to refer to relevant domestic and foreign literature guidelines, summarized the research progress of pertussis laboratory detection and quality management, and then formed a consensus that aims to improve the efficiency and quality of laboratory detection and to provide standardized data support and application for clinical diagnosis and treatment of pertussis. This paper focuses on the clinical application of pertussis laboratory testing methods and quality management, making it effective in providing patients with diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis evaluation.
