Impact of Rapid Flu Testing in BMC ED (FluProcess)
2018年7月23日 更新者:Elissa Schechter-Perkins、Boston Medical Center
Proposal to Evaluate the Impact of Point of Care Liat Influenza A/B Testing in the Emergency Department at Boston Medical Center
The purpose of the study is to compare Emergency Department patients who undergo influenza testing using an FDA-approved point-of-care device (Cobas Liat Influenza A/B assay) located in the ED, to patients whose samples are sent to the BMC central laboratory.
Patients who agree to participate will have their samples randomly assigned to be tested on either at the core lab, or on the POC device.
The current turnaround time for samples sent to the laboratory is approximately two hours; investigators expect that the point of care device can reduce this time.
Investigators will determine if the time to disposition and the administration of antibiotics is different in the group undergoing POC influenza testing compared to those undergoing laboratory-based influenza testing

有源比较器:Core Lab Testing Arm
For patients with clinical concern for influenza, the usual workflow in the BMC ED is that physicians order the collection of a nasopharyngeal swab (NPS) for influenza A/B testing to be performed in the core microbiology laboratory using one of two assays.
The two influenza A/B-only assays available in the core lab are a) an instrumented fluorescent immunoassay rapid antigen test, the Sofia influenza A+B FIA (Quidel Corporation) and b) an automated real-time PCR test, the Xpert Flu (Cepheid, Inc.).
Which test is ordered is at the discretion of the physician.
Both the Sofia and Xpert assays provide a result callout to distinguish influenza type A from type B.
|
For patients randomized to the Core Lab Testing Arm, ED physicians will order an influenza test to be performed in the core lab.

实验性的:ED Point of Care Testing Arm
Prior to the study the Cobas Liat Influenza A/B assay will be verified for patient care at BMC.
The instrument and test kits will be available in the ED for use with study subjects randomized to this study arm.
The Cobas Liat assay provides a result callout to distinguish influenza type A from type B.

For patients randomized to the ED Point of Care Testing Arm, the Research Assistant will perform influenza testing in the Emergency Department, using the Cobas Liat Influenza A/B assay
