The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of Species-specific Bacterial Dector(SSBD)for fast pathogen diagnosis and treatment in patients with severe pneumonia. Several adult ICU units from the hospitals in Jiangsu province participate the study and the hosted unit is the Department of Critical Care Medicine, Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical College. All patients who met the inclusion criteria are enrolled and randomly assigned either to the experiment group or to the control group, and received empiral antibiotics initially. In the experiment group, secretions from low respiratory tract are detected by SSBD and conventional culture tests simultaneously on day1,day3 and day7 after enrollment, while in the control group conventional culture tests are carried out on the same days. In the experiment group, antibiotics adjustments are made by two experienced doctors immediately when SSBD results are available, and other treatments are equivalent to those in the control group as routinely. Some clinical parameters and outcomes are recorded.', 'detailedDescription': 'Sepsis is associated with high morbidity and mortality . Adequate antibiotic therapy in time could decrease mortality and reduce the length of stay in ICU for patients with sepsis or septic shock . As reported in the previous study, the mortality rate of patients increased approximately 7.6% for every hour delayed. Therefore, rapid diagnosis of pathogenic microorganisms is crucial for shortening the time of empirical antibiotic therapy and improving the prognosis of patients with sepsis.\n\nConventional culture test (CCT) is the most commonly used and golden standard identification method of pathogenic microorganisms in most countries. However, it showed two critical limitations: long time-consuming (2-5 days) and low sensitivity (30-50%), which limited the application of this method in the ICU . To overcome this bottleneck, several new tools were developed and showed significant improvement in time consumption and accuracy. Recently, next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology was applied to acquire the entire information of microorganisms and demonstrated great ability in diagnosing rare pathogens. However, the whole process still needs at least 2 days for the full diagnostic report with high cost. On the other hand, NGS provided too much information about microorganisms but only semi-quantification of pathogens, which was hard for most clinical doctors to extract the most important information to determine antibiotic usage. Other new emerging detection techniques designed by BioFire and Curetis are much superior in detection time than these above. However, its original principle was based on nucleotide diversity of conserved genes among species, which could not satisfy the application in the ICU due to potential false-positive results. Therefore, a unique diagnosis tool aimed at faster and more accurate pathogen identification in the ICU was still a great challenge.\n\nSpecies-specific gene sequences for bacteria are found creatively. Based on these sequences, species-specific Bacterial Dector(SSBD) are designed. By SSBD, accurate and rapid detection of the most common pathogenic bacteria of sepsis could be carried out bedside conveniently in the ICU in 2\\~3 hours. A multiple-center randomized controlled trial will be conducted in ICU pneumonia patients to evaluate clinical benefits from SSBD.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1. age ≥ 18 years;\n2.
