While influenza and other respiratory pathogens cause significant morbidity mortality, the community-based burden of these infections remains incompletely understood. The development novel methods to detect is essential for mitigating epidemics developing pandemic-preparedness infrastructure.
Abstract Introduction While seasonal influenza and other respiratory pathogens cause significant morbidity mortality each year, the community-based burden of these infections remains incompletely understood. Understanding prevalence, epidemiology, transmission dynamics pathogen among community-dwelling individuals is essential during pandemic epidemic settings for developing pandemic-preparedness infrastructure. Methods Analysis We present protocol a novel, city-wide home-based...
Rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for influenza used by individuals at home could potentially expand access to testing and reduce the impact of on health systems. Improving lead earlier diagnosis following symptom onset, allowing more rapid interventions those who test positive, including behavioral changes minimize spread. However, accuracy RDTs has not been determined in self-testing populations.This study aims assess an RDT conducted lay users with acute respiratory illness compared that a...
Diagnostic tests for influenza in Australia are currently only authorised use clinical settings. At-home diagnostic testing could reduce the need patient contact with healthcare services, which potentially contribute to symptomatic improvement and reduced spread of influenza. We aim determine accuracy an app-guided nasal self-swab combined a lateral flow immunoassay conducted by individuals influenza-like illness (ILI). Adults (≥18 years) presenting ILI will be recruited general...
Seasonal influenza leads to significant morbidity and mortality. Rapid self-tests could improve access testing in community settings. We aimed evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of a mobile app-guided rapid self-test for adults with like illness (ILI), identify optimal methods conducting studies home-based assays other respiratory viruses.This cross-sectional study recruited who self-reported ILI online. Participants downloaded app, which guided them through two low nasal swab self-samples....
Abstract Introduction While influenza and other respiratory pathogens cause significant morbidity mortality, the community-based burden of these infections remains incompletely understood. The development novel methods to detect is essential for mitigating epidemics developing pandemic-preparedness infrastructure. Methods From October 2019 March 2020, we conducted a home-based cross-sectional study in greater Seattle area, utilizing electronic consent data collection instruments....
