Abstrakt: |
Extending the 120-day cultivation period to 180 days increased the positivity of hemoculture 11 times (1,100% increase; p = 0.0052) in 87 patients with chronic Chagas disease. This change improved the concordance with the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and polymerase chain reaction results and may be an important strategy in cases of very low parasitemia.
