Pneumonia due to Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major cause of disease requiring treatment and hospitalization (1,2). The standard procedure for confirming pneumococcal pneumonia is positive culture of S. pneumoniae from blood. However, it is estimated that only around 25% of cases are culture positive (1,2). Detection of pneumococcal antigens in urine is recommended as an alternative method, which is an rapid and easy test to perform (1). The most commonly used urinary pneumococcal antigen test in Denmark is ImmuView® (S. pneumoniae and L. pneumophila Urinary Antigen Test; SSI Diagnostica, Denmark) and BinaxNOW® (S. pneumoniae antigen card; Abott, Denmark).

一例细菌性无乳链球菌感染假阳性肺炎球菌尿抗原测试。

肺炎链球菌引起的肺炎是需要治疗和住院的疾病的主要原因（1,2）。确认肺炎球菌性肺炎的标准程序是从血中阳性培养肺炎链球菌。但是，据估计仅约25％的病例为培养阳性（1,2）。建议将尿液中的肺炎球菌抗原检测作为一种替代方法，该方法可快速，简便地进行检测（1）。在丹麦最常用的尿肺炎球菌抗原的测试是ImmuView®（肺炎链球菌和嗜肺军团菌尿抗原测试; SSI Diagnostica公司，丹麦）和BinaxNOW®（肺炎链球菌抗原卡;艾博特，丹麦）。
