Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The Sponsor has developed a rapid screening tool intended to determine if the subject tested is COVID-19-free (Negative to COVID-19).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Within this proposed project, the NHS will collect two diagnostic or screening tests per participant. One sample will be used by NHS and be run through regular diagnostics. The second, will be breath sample which will be tested using the BioSafety Technologies Ltd, rapid screening tool. This will use a pre-defined protocol. These tests would then be compared to assess the diagnostic efficacy including sensitivity and specificities. We will be aiming to achieve a significant comparison to ensure certainty and to exploit the information for proposing a novel diagnostic system to enhance capabilities to scale up the testing of patients. The proposed activity involves clinical validation of BioSafety Testing, to enhance the performance of detection along with clinicians.

Allocation Method

NA

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

The participant's breath sample is taken by blowing preferably three times into a disposable TeraTube. Thereafter, the tube is sealed, sterilized, and scanned by the BioSafety Station for analysis of its bio-chemical spectral signature. This will take place once during the study.
