A faster test to find bloodstream infections
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study tests a new machine learning method to quickly identify bacteria in the blood using special sample bottles. If you are getting blood cultures done already, this may help get results faster.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need to be getting a blood culture test as part of your regular care.
- You weigh more than 50 kg (about 110 pounds).
- It is possible to collect 2 to 4 extra blood sample bottles from your vein.
- You do not object to being in this study.
- You are not currently taking antibiotics for another infection at the time of the blood draw.

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 trial tests a rapid diagnostic method that identifies the bacteria in your blood more quickly than standard tests. If it works, doctors can pick the right antibiotic sooner.
This study tests a new blood test that may quickly find bacteria or yeast causing a bloodstream infection. It uses a small extra blood sample taken at the same time as your regular blood culture, and could help doctors identify the infection faster.
This study looks at how labs process blood cultures for sepsis to find faster, better ways to detect infections. It may help improve treatment speed for patients with sepsis.
This trial tests whether a machine learning model can help doctors decide when to order blood cultures for patients in the emergency department. It aims to reduce unnecessary tests while still catching infections.
