Observation of early presentation and management of acute respiratory illness in the community
This information is provided directly by researchers and we recognise that it isn't always easy to understand. We are working with researchers to improve the accessibility of this information.
Acute respiratory infection (ARI) is the commonest reason for consulting in community care. Furthermore, new and re-emerging pathogens are often first noticed in primary care (PC). The POS-ARI-PC study is a long-term study, with the aim of describing the nature of ARI in adults and children presenting to PC across Europe. The POS-ARI-PC study will provide critically important data on the presentation and management of ARI, and build a research-ready infrastructure for studies related to the treatment, diagnosis, and prevention of ARI in primary care settings.
POS-ARI-PC-001
This embedded study is appended to the POS-ARI-PC-Core Protocol with an SSA. This study is to estimate the overall incidences of medically-attended respiratory syncytial virus, human metapneumovirus, human parainfluenza virus and rhinovirus amongst older adults in Europe.
Start dates may differ between countries and research sites. The research team are responsible for keeping the information up-to-date.

Patients will not be eligible if:1. According to the judgement of the recruiting clinician, they will not be able to comply with study procedures, for example, because they do not understand the language in which the study is being conducted locally (and have no one to help and translate for them); have a serious psychiatric disorder; or are terminally ill2. Symptoms of presumed non-infective origin3. Participant requires admission to the hospital on the day of inclusion. Additional in/exclusion criteria might apply to embedded studies and will be described in the SSA or ISA
(added 28/02/2024)POS-ARI-PC-001 StudyAs per the POS-ARI-PC CORE Protocol, with one exception: patients needing hospitalisation can be recruited into the study if timing allows. Patients can provide a swab and decide not to participate in the follow-up procedures.
Below are the locations for where you can take part in the trial. Please note that not all sites may be open.
