NCT ID NCT07513519
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a quick lab test (Spotfire R/ST) can help doctors decide when antibiotics are truly needed for people with respiratory infections like colds or sore throats. About 800 urgent care patients will take part, and researchers will compare antibiotic use before and after the test is introduced. The goal is to reduce unnecessary antibiotic prescriptions without harming patient care.
