In pediatrics, timely and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective management and treatment of diseases. Multiplex PCR offers several advantages:
Rapid Diagnosis: It provides quick results, which is essential for initiating early treatment, especially in neonatal infections and pediatric infectious diseases. High Sensitivity and Specificity: Multiplex PCR is highly sensitive and specific, ensuring accurate detection of pathogens or genetic mutations. Cost-Effective: By combining multiple tests into one, it reduces the overall cost and conserves valuable patient samples.
