Precision Diagnosis of Acute Infectious Diseases; Neuroinflammatory Cohort

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Encephalitis, Meningitis

In brief

This study aims to use a clinically validated metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) assay to provide a demonstration of precision medicine for diagnosis of acute infectious disease in hospitalized patients. From June 2016 to June 2017, 200 patients will be enrolled from multiple hospitals in California and outside of California. Patients will be evaluated to determine the impact on the mNGS assay on diagnostic yield, hospital costs and clinical outcomes.
