Brief description of study

The aim of this study is to provide a first evaluation of the performance of Momentum Bioscience’s MagRAPID test, in a manual prototype format, when used with clinical samples.  MagRAPID is a hospital laboratory-based diagnostic test for the early detection and characterisation of bacteria and fungi in blood. 

Detailed description of study

The primary objectives of the study are to provide preliminary data on the following aspects of MagRAPID performance:
1.      Its sensitivity when detecting bloodstream infection from whole blood, compared to traditional blood culture; and to clinical assessment of the likelihood of bloodstream infection (BSI);
2.      Its sensitivity and accuracy in describing detected organisms as Gram positive, Gram negative or Candida: and if Gram positive, whether Staphylococci, S. aureus, Streptococci or Enterococci;
3.      To identify cut-off values and thresholds for MagRAPID reporting.
