Official Study Title
A RANDOMIZED PROSPECTIVE CLINICAL TRIAL TO ASSESS PROCALCITONIN-GUIDANCE AND MOLECULAR-GUIDED DIAGNOSIS AS MAINSTAY FOR THERAPY OF SEVERE INFECTIONS (The MODIFY trial)
Brief Description
The aim of the study is to demonstrate if using a combined strategy of rapid molecular diagnosis with BioFire® FilmArray® Blood Culture Identification 2 Panel and the Reveal Rapid AST system with a PCT-guided rule of stop of antimicrobials, may impact on the outcomes of patients with severe infections. The primary outcome would be the number of days under treatment with broad-spectrum antimicrobials in the group receiving the MODIFY strategy compared to patients treated by standard of care.
