Bacterial Meningitis: IDSA guidelines for 2004 report that a normal CRP value has a high negative predictive value for bacterial meningitis, but sensitivities and specificities vary between studies [35]. Instead, they strongly advocated for the use of lung ultrasound to diagnose bacterial CAP [45]. Cleve Clin J Med. doi: 10.3949/ccjm.75.8.557.
