Summary

The present study will assess the effect and cost-effectiveness of the availability of point-of-care (POC) PCR testing, in respiratory tract infections (RTIs) in general practice, compared with usual care.

Conditions

  • Respiratory Tract Infections

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

POC PCR-test device

The analysis will follow an intention-to-treat principle, that is, contacts in the intervention period will be analyzed as randomized, regardless of whether the POC PCR test was actually performed for a given contact. As sensitivity analysis, the data will be analyzed in a "per-protocol" spirit, defining the intervention at the contact level as a POC PCR test performed.
