The management of ventilator-associated pneumonia and hospital-acquired pneumonia requires rapid and accurate quantitative detection of the infecting pathogen. To this end, we propose a metagenomic sequencing assay that includes the use of an internal sample processing control for the quantitative detection of 20 relevant bacterial species from bronchoalveolar lavage samples.
