New test could cut blood infection diagnosis from days to hours
NCT ID NCT06241248
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new rapid test (OCEAN Dx) to identify bacteria in the blood of 110 ICU patients with suspected sepsis. The goal was to see if it works as well as standard blood cultures, which take 48-72 hours. A faster result could help doctors choose the right antibiotics sooner, potentially saving lives.
