Results Of 930 patients with meningitis, 626 were included in the analysis, and 27 (4.3%) were diagnosed with bacterial meningitis. A total of 384/626 (61.3%) patients had a BMS = 0, and none presented bacterial meningitis. BMS sensitivity was 100% [95% confidence interval (CI), 87.2-100%], and its negative predictive values were 100% (95% CI, 98.8-100%). Conclusion Among patients with a diagnosis of meningitis in ED, a BMS of 0 may safely rule out bacterial meningitis.Purpose To evaluate the changes in tear function in patients with
