formally conduct a power calculation. A larger sample size
associated with a power calculation may be appropriate for
future studies. Also, it is possible that a difference of 12
hours between the RVP and rapid RP may be too short to
demonstrate a clinical significance.
In conclusion, despite faster turnaround time, there was
no significant difference in duration of antibiotic use, or LOS
between the RVP and rapid RP groups. Small sample size,
positivity of RVP-PCR tests, a small difference of 12 hours
between turnaround times, and confounding variables may
have contributed to this result.
