研究概览
简要总结
This is a retrospective external field study of a novel in vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay (ImmunoXpert™).
The study will involve reviewing the medical charts of about 4500 pediatric patients that were tested using ImmunoXpert™ as part of the routine workup for acute febrile illness.
ImmunoXpert™ uses a computer algorithm to combine immunoassay measurements of three host immune proteins (TRAIL, IP-10, and CRP) present in human blood. The test is intended for use in conjunction with clinical assessments and other laboratory findings as an aid to differentiate bacterial from viral infection.
Statistical analysis will be performed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of ImmunoXpert™ with that of current practice lab testing e.g., WBC, CRP, and PCT (whichever were taken as part of routine care) and clinical suspicion at time of requisition.

- •The febrile illness should also fulfill the following criteria:
- •The patient had a peak temperature ≥38°C (AND)
- •Symptoms initiated ≤ 7 days before sampling (AND)
- •A retrospective diagnosis of bacterial or viral or mixed infection was anonymously determined by a panel of three independent senior pediatricians.
- •The non-infectious disease control group will include:
- •A retrospective diagnosis of a non-infectious disease was anonymously determined by a panel of three independent senior pediatricians physicians.
- •Patients with a non-infectious disease ( and ImmunoDx test was wrongly taken)
