About the study
This study is designed to evaluate the clinical performance of the UllCORE Bloodstream Infection (BSI) Test, an investigational molecular diagnostic test intended to detect microorganisms and selected antimicrobial resistance markers directly from whole blood in patients with suspected bloodstream infection or sepsis.
Participants enrolled in the study will have blood collected at the same time as blood samples obtained for standard-of-care blood culture testing. Study blood samples will be tested using the UllCORE BSI Test either as fresh samples or after frozen storage, according to the study protocol.
The results of the UllCORE BSI Test will be compared with standard-of-care microbiology results and, when applicable, additional testing methods to assess the diagnostic performance of the investigational test.
The UllCORE BSI Test results will not be used to guide patient care and will not be provided to treating healthcare professionals for clinical decision-making. Participation in the study will therefore not change the standard medical care received by participants.
