Fever and respiratory infection study
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at adults with a fever caused by a respiratory infection. If you qualify, you will have a blood draw as part of your regular care, and researchers will use it to learn more about your condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a fever of at least 100.9°F (38.3°C) when taken by mouth, or similar temperature by another method, either now or in the past 24 hours.

This study tests a new, step-by-step way doctors identify what’s causing sudden fever and respiratory infections (like pneumonia or flu-like illness). It may help clinicians diagnose faster and choose the right next care.
This trial tests an emergency breathing-related approach for adults with a sudden, community-acquired respiratory infection. It may help doctors quickly sort out what’s going on and guide early care.
This study looks at people who recently had fever and cough along with trouble breathing, to better understand severe acute respiratory illness. By joining, you may help researchers identify patterns that could improve recognition and care.
This study tests new diagnostic tools to help quickly identify what's causing your respiratory infection. You'll provide samples (like nasal swabs) to help researchers understand how these new tests work in real patients.
This study looks at changes in blood to figure out what infection is causing a person’s fever (or, for some participants, to compare with people without fever). It may help doctors learn faster ways to identify infections and target the right treatment.
This study looks at viruses in babies under 3 months old who come to the emergency room with a fever and signs of infection. It compares them to healthy babies to better understand what causes these symptoms.
