pertussis, and 102 (74%) samples were banked and available for RPP testing. Fifty-seven of 102 (56%) of the banked samples had positive RPP testing for pertussis. Of the 45 samples negative for pertussis on RPP testing, 20 (44%) tested positive for other respiratory pathogens. Negative testing for B. pertussis and positive testing for other respiratory pathogens on RPP was common in samples that previously tested positive on dedicated B. pertussis PCR testing, both of which could lead to missed diagnoses of pertussis infection.
