This 9-year-old boy was taken to the emergency department with a sore throat. On examination, he had redness of the throat and slightly swollen glands. The physician assistant ordered a throat culture and blood drawn for an antistreptolysin-O antibody (ASO). An antibiotic was prescribed for a 10-day period. His mother was told to make an appointment with his pediatrician for a follow-up. At the follow-up visit 2 weeks later, the results of the laboratory test revealed a throat culture with a few colonies of β-streptococci. The qualitative ASO test result was reported as positive. The acute serum was frozen at the time of testing. The pediatrician ordered a convalescent specimen to be tested semiquantitatively in parallel with the acute specimen for an ASO titer. The results of the parallel testing of the acute and convalescent specimens revealed the following: • Acute specimen positive, 1:1 dilution/titer (IU/mL 200) • Convalescent specimen positive, 1:4 dilution/titer (IU/mL 800)
