简要总结
The RAPID trial is a randomized controlled trial that looks at the clinical impact of a rapid respiratory test in a pediatric emergency department. Participants will be randomized to the intervention group - results available to medical providers, or the control group- results not available to medical providers.
详细描述
The RAPID trial is a randomized controlled trial of rapid respiratory viral testing in children presenting to an Emergency Department setting with acute respiratory symptoms. The patient cohort will be children 1 month to 18 years of age presenting to the Children's Hospital Colorado (CHCO) Emergency Department with influenza like illness who are triaged as level 3, 4, or 5 by the Emergency Severity Index, representing the typical patient population who are evaluated in an urgent care setting. All eligible participants will undergo a nasopharyngeal swab and point of care testing, and participants will be allocated 1:1 by computer-generated randomization to either the intervention group - test result available to providers, or the control group- test result not available (routine clinical care). The investigators will compare the clinical outcomes between the two groups.
