Clinical Impact of Fast Phenotypic Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing on Patients With Gram-Negative Rod Bacteremia

Not Applicable
Withdrawn
Conditions
Gram-negative Bacteremia
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Accelerate Pheno
Diagnostic Test: Standard of Care
Registration Number
NCT03745014
Lead Sponsor
Accelerate Diagnostics, Inc.
Brief Summary

The FDA-cleared Accelerate Pheno™ System and PhenoTest™ Blood Culture (BC) Kit will be used to assess the workflow impact of fast identification (ID)/ antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) in the microbiology lab and in the quality of care in patients with Gram-negative rod (GNR) bacteremia. Blood culture work up will be randomized to one of two arms: the positive blood culture will either undergo fast ID and AST using the Accelerate Pheno™ System and PhenoTest™ BC Kit or processing per the site's standard of care (SOC) procedures.

Desirability of Outcome Ranking (DOOR) - composite outcome30 days

The primary endpoint is the probability that a patient will have a better DOOR when the Accelerate PhenoTest™ BC kit is used on positive blood cultures due to gram-negative rods compared to the standard of care
