    Abstract Background: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) serostatus is a major determinant of CMV infection, disease risk, and transplant outcomes. Current clinical serology assays are limited by relatively slow turnaround time, design for batched testing, need for trained personnel, and/or specialized equipment. Rapid diagnostic assays in development have a role in emerging settings, such as critically ill patients, but have not been systematically evaluated.
    Methods: We assessed the performance of 3 rapid lateral flow assays (LFAs) for the detection of CMV immunoglobulin (Ig)G antibodies compared with a reference commercially available CMV IgG enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in residual serum samples from 200 consecutive adults who underwent clinical CMV serology testing. Samples with discrepant results between the LFA and reference assay were tested by a second reference assay. A subset of serum samples was assessed for interoperator variability. Operating characteristics of the QooLabs LFA were separately assessed in plasma samples.
    Results: The sensitivity and specificity of the individual LFA assays using serum varied significantly: 86%/83%, 99/93%, and 57/97%, for Healgen, QNow automated reader, and nanoComposix, respectively, compared with the reference assay. Results for the QNow assay were comparable between automated and manual reads. Among a subset of 10 serum samples assessed by 5 individual operators, 44 of 50 (88%) results were concordant. Among 50 plasma samples assessed by the QooLabs LFA, the sensitivity and specificity were 72% and 96%.
    Conclusions: The ease of performance, rapid turnaround time, and good operating characteristics provide the rationale for further evaluation of the Qoolabs QNow LFA in specialized settings where rapid assessment of CMV serostatus would be advantageous.

    Abstract Despite robust successes in trials of mechanical ventilation, pharmacologic interventions in acute respiratory distress syndrome have been disappointing. Although ineffective therapy remains the compelling explanation for these negative trials, other possible explanations exist. These negative trials, better termed "statistically negative trials" or "indeterminate trials," cannot prove that a therapy is ineffective. It is important for clinicians and investigators to appreciate the alternative explanations for negative trials of potentially effective therapies because these indicate options for improving clinical trials in acute respiratory distress syndrome. These options can be organized into strategies that increase sample size, increase the signal from the therapy, and reduce the noise or variation in the study. Each of the strategies to improve the likelihood of a positive clinical trial poses a potential tradeoff in generalizability, cost, sample size, signal, or noise.

    Abstract Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common, lethal, and morbid respiratory complication primarily seen in the setting of major trauma and infection. Despite advances in mechanical ventilation for ARDS, many interventions have not been successful in reducing mortality. Recent grant announcements and ongoing clinical trials indicate an interest in preventing ARDS. This Perspective challenges some of the basic assumptions of ARDS prevention and preventive care in the intensive care unit. ARDS is an organ function surrogate outcome. Studies of surrogate outcomes in medicine have repeatedly failed to show an association with patient-centered outcomes that might include mortality, quality of life, patient satisfaction, and cost. Organ failure surrogate outcomes in critical care, including oxygenation, cardiac output, and blood pressure, have similarly failed to show a consistent association with patient-centered benefit. Trials designed to demonstrate an effect on surrogate outcomes will rarely be able to demonstrate small, but important, harms so that the net benefit of prevention can be calculated. This will leave clinicians with insufficient information to balance the unknown benefits of ARDS prevention with imprecisely estimated costs or risks of prevention. Because ARDS diagnosis relies on oxygenation and the chest radiograph that might be directly influenced by the prophylactic intervention, studies must be designed to insure that the prevention is not merely cosmetic. Strategies that prevent ARDS need to be tested in trials sufficiently powered to demonstrate their patient-centered costs, benefits and harms before widespread adoption.
