About

The purpose of the pivotal study is to collect blood specimens and clinical data from pediatric (>90 days old) and adult (≥18 years old) patients presenting with signs and symptoms suggestive of acute bacterial or viral infection. These samples will be used to establish the diagnostic performance of MeMed BV™ for differentiating bacterial from viral infection using method comparison and/or method concordance.

Full description

The objective of this study is to collect blood specimens from pediatric (>90 days old) and adult patients (≥18 years old) presenting with signs and symptoms suggestive of acute bacterial or viral infection from hospital, Emergency Department, or Urgent Care Centers for comparative testing on the Access 2 and DxI 9000 Immunoassay Analyzers.

Enrollment: 650 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 90 days to 89 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Trial design

650 participants in 1 patient group

Adult and Pediatrics

Description:

A minimum of 244 serum samples will be collected at a minimum of two (2) US locations from enrolled pediatric and adult patients presenting signs and symptoms suggestive of acute bacterial or viral infection. The number of patients enrolled is based on total volume required to run analytical comparison studies under a future testing protocol.

Other: Adult and Pediatrics
