Problems solved by technology

Second, transport of samples to laboratories for growth in culture can increase the risk of errors, such as misidentification of samples, or exposure of unprotected personnel to samples containing highly infectious pathogens
Third, based on the list of suspected pathogens (pathogen list) provided by observers (ie doctors), pathogen testing will be limited, which means that additional unsuspected but possible pathogens are not tested
This limits the simultaneous detection of preferred pathogen-specific targets and presents a barrier to fully exploiting the complementary capabilities of the two strategies

Embodiment Construction

[0032] now refer to figure 1 , the method of the present invention is described by a series of steps set forth in a flowchart.

[0033] The first step 12 is to collect a sample from the host (e.g., human, animal or environmental sample), preferably a blood sample, although plasma samples, serum samples, CSF, BAL, NP aspirates, NP swabs can be used where appropriate , sputum, and other types of physical samples. The sample 14 is then analyzed and a list 16 of pathogens identified in the sample is generated. The GPS receiver determines the location of the sample reader and thus the location 22 of the sample. Both the list and location information of identified pathogens are sent to a central database for storage and processing20. Simultaneously, based on the identified pathogens, a list of treatment options (options) is displayed at 18 for consideration by the operator.

[0034] by e.g. figure 2 The pathogen detection device 30 is shown performing the analysis 14 . The de...

Abstract

According to an aspect of the invention there is provided a method of performing one or more of: detecting, identifying and characterizing pathoge ns and characterizing pathogen host using markers for pathogens and hosts, comprisi ng the steps of: a) preparing a marker-detection medium containing signatures of the identity and characteristics of pathogens and optionally of hosts; b) collecting a sample from a host; c) combining the sample with the marker-detection medium and d) analyzing the signatures to detect, identify and characterize the pathogens, and optionally, characterize the host.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of detection of pathogens. In particular, the present invention relates to a system and method for detecting, identifying, characterizing and monitoring pathogen and host markers, collecting and disseminating information about those pathogens and their hosts in real time from immediate location to immediate location , providing immediate treatment advice and educational information. Background technique [0002] The detection and characterization of infectious disease is a complex process that ideally begins with the identification of the pathogen. This has traditionally been done by direct examination and culture of appropriate clinical samples. However, direct inspection is limited by the number of organisms present and by the observer's ability to successfully identify the pathogen. Similarly, the in vitro cultivation of pathogens depends on the selection of an appropriate medium and on the degree of fas...
