Evaluating the Analytical Equivalency of Serum and Whole Blood Samples Run on the MeMed Key® Platform (Perseverance Study)

October 22, 2023 updated by: MeMed Diagnostics Ltd.

A Prospective Multi-center Sample Collection Study for Evaluating the Analytical Equivalency of Serum and Whole Blood Samples Run on the MeMed Key® Platform ("Perseverance" Study)

This is a Prospective, multi-center, sample collection study enrolling pediatric and adult subjects presented to the ED/Urgent care, with symptoms consistent with acute bacterial or viral infection will be recruited according to eligibility criteria. The study is designed to measure the MeMed BV®️ score in whole blood and serum samples and demonstrate the equivalence between the two matrices. Patients will be managed according to the current standard of care per standard institutional procedures.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

2 months and older (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
