cord-332042-bqtflk7r	LeBlanc, J. J.	Validation of the Seegene RV15 multiplex PCR for the detection of influenza A subtypes and influenza B lineages during national influenza surveillance in hospitalized adults	2019-07-02		.txt	text/plain	4562	227	44	Influenza A and B viruses are identified and characterized using real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and multiplex testing has been performed on a subset of patients to identify other respiratory virus aetiologies. The CIRN SOS Network comprises 15 to 45 acute care (depending on the year) hospitals across Canada, and influenza testing is performed using real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) methods derived from the World Health Organization (WHO) [12] [13] [14] . While WHO-based real-time RT-PCRs methods are often viewed as the reference standard for influenza virus detection, diagnostic laboratories and surveillance studies often test for other viral aetiologies of respiratory illness [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] . This study's strengths include prospectively collected specimens from a defined patient population (adults hospitalized with acute respiratory illness), comparison of results against reference methods for influenza A and B detection, and analyses performed on influenza viruses characterized by subtyping or lineage determination.	./cache/cord-332042-bqtflk7r.txt	./txt/cord-332042-bqtflk7r.txt
