There are an estimated 165,000 cases and 89,000 deaths world-wide each year. Eighty-four percent of cases are in SE Asia where mortality is 40%; far exceeding most recognised neglected tropical diseases. Pneumonia, secondary to either inhalation of B.pseudomallei or to bacteraemic spread to the lung is the commonest presentation (51%). Annually the highest burden (75%) of infection occurs in the rainy season in (75% in Thailand). Up to 80% patients have at least one recognised risk factor for melioidosis including; diabetes, alcohol-dependence, glucocorticoid therapy, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), chronic renal disease and cancer. COPD and diabetes mellitus are amongst the top ten causes of death in Myanmar (2018). Patients with HIV have not been shown to have greater risk of B. pseudomallei than immunocompetent patients.\n\nMelioidosis was discovered in Myanmar in 1911 by British pathologist Alfred Whitmore and his assistant CS Krishnaswami. Yet since 1949 there have been few published cases. Under-reporting is partly due to difficulty in diagnosing melioidosis. Clinical and radiological findings are indistinguishable from tuberculosis. Laboratory diagnosis is challenging, lack of facilities, expertise and awareness of B.pseudomallei results in missed diagnostic opportunities.\n\nCulture is the gold-standard diagnostic method but requires appropriate facilities and expertise which are not readily available in many developing countries like Myanmar. A rapid diagnostic (RDT) test has been developed for low resource settings that has been evaluated in Laos and India. The InBios® Active Melioidosis DetectTM-Lateral Flow Assay (AMD-LFA) detects B.pseudomallei 6-deoxyheptan capsular polysaccharide antigen. Shaw et al demonstrated sensitivity 85.71% (CI:74.61% to 93.25%) and specificity 93.62% (CI:88.23% to 97.04%), with positive predictive value of 85.71% (CI: 75.98% to 91.92%) compared to culture. We propose to evaluate this test for the diagnosis of melioidosis pneumonia in Myanmar.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'The population investigated will be patients attending two non-governmental organisation community clinics in the most deprived areas of Yangon, Myanmar', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1. \\>18 years old\n2.
