Infection Adjudication• Based on the microbiology and antibiotic data
entered, REDCAP will automatically trigger suspicions of newly acquired infections
• Suspicions MUST be adjudicated by Site Investigator or MD delegate
• REDCAP will generate a table that will guide and
assist the Site Investigator/Research Coordinator through the various steps

a) Newly acquired infection
10
• Pick this option if the clinical suspicion of infection is considered to be a newly acquired infection.
• Assign a Category of Infection, then the degree of certainty of the infection using the definition from CRF Appendix 9
• For example, on study day 9 the patient is febrile, has an elevated WBC, CXR reveals a new infiltrate. An endotracheal aspirate specimen was sent for culture, S. aureus is identified. The infection should be adjudicated as follows:

b) NOT a newly acquired infection
11
• Pick this option if the clinical suspicion of infection is not considered to be an infection.
• Assign the degree of certainty of the infection using CRF Appendix 10• For example, On study day 17 a blood culture indicates the presence of
Staph Epidermis. There are no other clinical indicators of infection (i.e. SIRS). A repeat culture is negative. The initial positive culture is thought to be a contaminant. The infection should be adjudicated as follows:

c) Previously adjudicated infection
12
• Pick this option if this clinical suspicion of infection is associated with an infection already adjudicated.
• Indicate the day and the suspicion # of the associated previously adjudicated infection.
• Infections that occur within the first 72 hrs of ICU admission are not to be considered newly acquired infections, however, these may be related to suspicions later. If the suspicion of infection was due to an infection that
occurred in the first 72 hours after ICU admission, select “Baseline Infection”.
![Page 13: Infection Adjudication on REDCAP Module 1 Version: Feb 1st, 2012.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f315503460f94c4cce2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
c) Previously adjudicated infection
13
• For example, on study day 19 the patient is febrile, has an elevated WBC and CXR reveals a new infiltrate. An endotracheal aspirate specimen was sent for culture, S. aureus is identified.
• On study day 20 an antibiotic was initiated to treat the S. aureus.
• The clinical suspicion triggered on study day 20 with the initiation of an antibiotic is related to a previously adjudicated infection.

NOTE: Sites responses removed• All adjudications that the central adjudicator has disagreed to will
automatically remove the sites response upon completion
• All adjudications that the central adjudicator agreed to will not be changed
27
This was removed because the Central Adjudicator disagreed with Infection ID #1
The sites response was not changed

Site Response to Central adjudication
• The CENTRAL ADJUDICATOR RESPONSE column will show either as an agree or a disagree (with a new response and the reasoning why in the comments)
• You must re-adjudicate all adjudications that the central disagreed to
• You will have 2 options to enter in the NEWLY ACQUIRED INFECTION column: Agree OR Disagree

• OPTION 1:
Select this if you agree with the determination made by the Central. If so, the following options stay disabled– This is a newly acquired infection– This is not a newly acquired infection– This is a previously adjudicated infection
30
• OPTION 2: Select this if you disagree with any aspect of the determination made by the central (such as the presence of infection, the category of infection and/or the degree of certainty). Re-adjudicate using the following options:– This is a newly acquired infection– This is not a newly acquired infection– This is a previously adjudicated infection

Incorrect Response
32
This will be removed because the you disagreed with Infection ID #1
You can not agree to a response that will be removed
This will be also be removed because it refers to Infection ID #1 which will be removed
• Since the central response is automatically removed when you disagree (eg infection ID #1), any adjudication that refers to it (eg infection ID #2) will be removed as well
• An error will trigger if you try to agree with a response that will be removed
![Page 33: Infection Adjudication on REDCAP Module 1 Version: Feb 1st, 2012.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f315503460f94c4cce2/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Correct Response
33
You must select disagree and select previous to your (site) response
• If infection ID # 2 is a previous infection to ID #1, you must disagree and select that the suspicion is a previous adjudicated to your response
![Page 34: Infection Adjudication on REDCAP Module 1 Version: Feb 1st, 2012.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f315503460f94c4cce2/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Site: to complete final adjudication
• Once adjudication is done, press
• The status will go back to Stage 4a for the central adjudicator to review
• The central adjudicator will have the opportunity to agree/disagree to adjudications you disagreed with
• This process will continue between site and central adjudicator until there is consensus for all the adjudications
• Once both adjudicators agree on all the responses, adjudication will be complete and the patient will automatically be set to stage 5

Site Investigator
• Remember the Site Investigator/MD delegate must determine the presence or absence of infection, the categories of infection and the degree of certainty
• Upon completion at stage 5, print the adjudication table (right click and print) and have the Site Investigator sign it for source verification purposes

• Whenever the or the buttons are clicked, they will run data checks.
• There are 4 types of checks1) Partial responses2) Missing responses3) Missing Explanation
Data Checks
![Page 38: Infection Adjudication on REDCAP Module 1 Version: Feb 1st, 2012.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f315503460f94c4cce2/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
1) Partial responses Check
• Partial responses can not be saved. – For example, the category of infection and the degree of certainty must be
completed for newly acquired infections to be saved– This applies to both and
38
![Page 39: Infection Adjudication on REDCAP Module 1 Version: Feb 1st, 2012.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f315503460f94c4cce2/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
2) Missing responses check
• Missing responses can be saved only with – For example, infection ID # 1-4 has been completed but # 5 has not. You can
save infections 1-4 with the button but you will not be allowed to choose until infection #5 has been filled out
