Blood infection test study for patients in the hospital
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study tests a new blood test (Microbio InfectID-BSI) to see how well it detects bacteria and yeast in patients with a possible bloodstream infection. If you are already having a blood culture done, the study will collect extra blood samples at the same time to compare the new test's results.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a newborn (less than 1 month), child (1 month to 17 years), or adult (18 years or older).
- You are in the ICU, Emergency Department, or another hospital ward for an acute illness.
- Your doctor has decided to test your blood for a possible bloodstream infection (blood culture).
- You can have two extra blood samples taken from the same arm or line at the same time as the blood culture.
- Each extra blood sample is at least 1 milliliter (mL) in volume.
- The blood samples will be stored following the study's special handling rules.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new rapid blood test (Cobas Eplex) that may help doctors identify the cause of a bloodstream infection faster than standard methods. If you are an adult or child hospitalized for a blood infection, this study could lead to quicker, more targeted treatment.
This study gathers information about blood infections to better understand them and improve care. It may help by providing detailed data on your specific infection.
This trial tests a new, faster way to find bacteria in the blood of children with suspected sepsis. It uses a molecular test that may give results sooner than standard cultures, helping doctors treat infections more quickly.
This trial is testing a new method (IDBIORIV) to quickly identify the germs causing sepsis and find the right antibiotic. It aims to help patients with a confirmed bloodstream infection get the most effective treatment faster.
This study tests whether a special blood test can help doctors quickly identify patients who have serious infections (sepsis) in the emergency department. The test looks at white blood cells that glow under fluorescent light to see if they can predict which patients are at highest risk.
This study tests a quick DNA-based test to find bloodstream infections in ICU patients. If you are getting standard blood cultures for a suspected infection, you may be able to join.
