The evidence quality was evaluated using Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation criteria. Two investigators independently searched the literature, screened and critically appraised the studies, extracted the data, and applied the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation criteria.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n RESULTS:<\/jats:title>\n Of the 257 unique studies identified and screened, 32 were completely reviewed and 8 were included. Routine enterovirus testing was associated with reduced hospital length of stay and cost savings during peak enterovirus season. Cerebrospinal fluid pleocytosis was a poor predictor of enterovirus meningitis. The studies were all observational and the evidence was of low quality.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n Enterovirus polymerase chain reaction testing, independent of cerebrospinal fluid pleocytosis, can reduce length of stay and achieve cost savings, especially during times of high enterovirus prevalence. Additional study is needed to identify subgroups that may achieve greater cost savings from testing to additionally enhance the efficiency of testing.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1542\/hpeds.2016-0060","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,2,1]],"date-time":"2017-02-01T09:35:37Z","timestamp":1485941737000},"page":"96-102","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["Impact of Enterovirus Testing on Resource Use in Febrile Young Infants: A Systematic Review"],"prefix":"10.1542","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Sowdhamini S.","family":"Wallace","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Section of Pediatric Hospital Medicine, Texas Children\u2019s Hospital, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michelle A.","family":"Lopez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Section of Pediatric Hospital Medicine, Texas Children\u2019s Hospital, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A.
