Collection of Clinical Specimens From Volunteers for Assay Development

This study will analyze gene expression data from various biological specimens collected from voluntary participants.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Acute Respiratory Infection
• Intervention / Treatment: Diagnostic test: HostDx Fever Test; Diagnostic test: HostDx Sepsis Test

Detailed Description

Primary objective is the collection of specimens from volunteers for the development and validation of HostDx tests. The study does only encompass specimen collection - Therefore, no traditional endpoint is defined but rather the successful collection of clinical specimens is defined as the endpoint.
