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 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 is testing a blood test that may help doctors diagnose sepsis faster. It involves people with sepsis and healthy volunteers to compare results.
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 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 study tests two new blood tests to see if they can help doctors find sepsis earlier in the emergency department. Sepsis is a serious condition where the body overreacts to an infection, and finding it quickly could lead to faster treatment and better outcomes.
