About this trial

This observational study aims to collect standardized clinical data and biosamples from adults in university hospitals across Germany. The main goals are to create a cohort that combines clinical data, pathogen samples, and biosamples, with consent for future research. A pre-screening program tracks infection-related hospitalizations, helping detect pathogen changes early and respond quickly. Participants will be recruited if they have respiratory, bloodstream, gastrointestinal, emerging, or central nervous system infections. Data and biosamples will be collected at the start and end of the hospital stay, with additional visits if needed.
