Clinical Impact of Fast Phenotypic Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing on Patients With Gram-Negative Rod Bacteremia
- Conditions
- Gram-negative Bacteremia
- Interventions
- Diagnostic Test: Accelerate PhenoDiagnostic 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.
