Optimizing Care for Children Hospitalized With Community-acquired Pneumonia: Novel Diagnostics — PRESTO-1  

Community-acquired Pneumonia Clinical Trial

Official title:
Optimizing Care for Children Hospitalized With Community-acquired Pneumonia: a Feasibility Randomized Controlled Trial of a Diagnostic Intervention

Clinical Trial Summary

Children are commonly hospitalized because of community-acquired pneumonia. Despite the fact that many of these children have viral disease, a majority is treated with antibiotics. These antibiotics will not accelerate recovery in those with viral pneumonia and can cause harm. We are interested in exploring whether the MeMed BV - a composite biomarker assay - could be used to improve antibiotic prescribing in these children by identifying those who likely have viral disease. This proposal describes a feasibility randomized trial of this diagnostic intervention.
