Summary

The goal of this observational study is to compare the results of a serum biomarker called the MeMed BV®, which is approved to help differentiate between bacterial and viral respiratory infections, to clinical diagnoses of adult emergency department patients presenting with recent fever and signs or symptoms of a respiratory infection. Active participation is completed during the emergency department visit and includes drawing blood, obtaining a sputum sample, and answering survey questions.

Detailed description

The MeMed BV® is a diagnostic test newly approved by the FDA to assess the likelihood of bacterial vs. viral respiratory infections based on protein biomarkers in blood. This study aims to identify the level of agreement between the results of the MeMed BV® (bacterial/viral) and the standard of care treatment received by the participant (e.g. antibiotics for patient diagnosed with bacterial pneumonia) in order to see if implementing the MeMed BV® into standard clinical care would potentially change diagnosis.
