Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Biochip for Rapid Diagnosis of Complicated Urinary Tract Infection (NCT NCT00591240)

NCT ID: NCT00591240

Last Updated: 2016-06-27

Results Overview

Study 1: Multiplex pathogen identification using biosensor based assay. We recruited 116 participants yielding 109 urine samples suitable for analysis and comparison between biosensor assays and standard urine culture. Biosensor based assays were used to detect multiple pathogens in the urine samples. Study 2: Antimicrobial susceptibility testing using biosensor based assay. We recruited 222 participants yielding 252 urine samples. Corresponding biosensor and clinical microbiology culture data was available for 215 samples. 73% (157) of these samples contained bacteria. Biosensor based antimicrobial susceptibility test, in concert with pathogen identification assay was directly performed on these samples.

Measure
Multiplex Identification of Pathogens.
Urine samples of patients at risk for urinary tract infections were collected. Biosensor based assays were used to detect the most common uropathogens in these samples. Analytical validity of the biosensor assays was examined by comparing biosensor results to those obtained using standard clinical microbiology laboratory methods. No interventions were performed.
Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing.
Urine samples of patients at risk of urinary tract infections were collected. Biosensor based antimicrobial susceptibility test, in concert with pathogen identification assay was directly performed on these samples. Analytical validity of the biosensor assays was examined by comparing biosensor results to those obtained using standard clinical microbiology laboratory methods. No interventions were performed.
