Puumala Hantavirus Infection in France: Evaluation of Commercial Assays for the Detection of Antibodies Against This Virus and the Use of Urine Samples for the Molecular Detection of This Infection
In Brief
An observational study for Nephropathia Epidemica and Hemorrhagic Fever With Renal Syndrome. Completed, enrolled 179 participants across 10 sites.
Detailed Summary
Routine Puumala virus (PUUV) infection diagnosis is performed using serological commercial kits of which performances have not been established in real life, which use recombinant protein from strains from Central or North Europe. Molecular diagnostic of these infection is not the rule. Consequently the objectives of the project are to evaluate the performances of the serological commercial assays in real life in France and to assess the use of urine versus plasma for the molecular diagnostic of this infection.
