Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Patient must be 18 years or older. 2. Patients with known or suspected blood stream infection based on clinical observations at the time of screening. 3. Patients exhibiting two or more signs of the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS): SIRS score equal to or more than 2 (SIRS will be diagnosed when two or more of the following criteria will be present: body temperature, more than 38? C (100.4? F) or less than 36? C (96.8? F); heart rate, more than 90 beats per minute; respiratory rate, equal to or more than 22 breaths per minute; white blood cell count, more than 12,000 cells per ?l or less than 4,000 cells per ?l or altered mental status). 4. Patient should be able to give informed consent if conscious or if patient is unconscious informed consent to be given by family member or LAR

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patient less than 18 years of age. 2. Moribund patient expected to die within 24 hours. 3. After Cardiopulmonary resuscitation. 4. Any patient not willing to give informed consent. 5. Subjects requiring less than 24hours admission to the ICU (e.g. post operative patients kept for observation) and those patients who are discharged alive from the ICU without developing sepsis are excluded from the study. 6. Subjects who are mentally unsound and those unwilling to participate in the study will be excluded from the study. 7. Subjects with any other clinically significant unstable medical condition, life-threatening disease, or anything else in the opinion of the Investigator that would interfere with the study results. 8. Uncontrolled hypertension, diabetes mellitus or any other co-morbidity that is considered as an exclusion by the Investigator.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate the sensitivity of GeNei Sepsis Kit for bacterial and fungal identification and detection of AMR genes in the whole blood of patients suspected of sepsis in comparison to conventional Blood Culture method.Timepoint: 4 WEEKS

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To determine ? Positive Predictive Value (PPV) & Negative Predictive Value (NPV) ? Turnaround time ? Concordance of the two methods - GeNei Sepsis Kit & Blood Culture ? Clinical utility of GeNeiTM Sepsis Kit ? Antimicrobial resistance gene profile of bacterial pathogens identified in positive samples. Timepoint: 4 WEEKS
