Access MeMed BV Assay Clinical Study Collection Protocol - Infectious Adult and Pediatric Cohorts

Description

The purpose of the pivotal study is to collect blood specimens and clinical data from pediatric (\>90 days old) and adult (≥18 years old) patients presenting with signs and symptoms suggestive of acute bacterial or viral infection. These samples will be used to establish the diagnostic performance of MeMed BV™ for differentiating bacterial from viral infection using method comparison and/or method concordance.
