Centor criteria information


Centor criteria
Streptococcus pyogenes

The Centor criteria are a set of criteria which may be used to identify the likelihood of a bacterial infection in patients complaining of a sore throat. They were developed as a method to quickly diagnose the presence of Group A streptococcal infection or diagnosis of streptococcal pharyngitis in "adult patients who presented to an urban emergency room complaining of a sore throat."[1] The Centor criteria are named after Robert M. Centor, an internist at the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Medicine.
