Efficacy
Investigation on the ability of the HIRA-TAN to shorten the time required for the transition from an empiric therapy to a specific therapy.
Comparison of the overall performance of HIRA-TAN system and conventional method to identify the causative pathogen of pneumonia.
Comparison of the cost between HIRA-TAN system and conventional method required for identification of the casative pathogen of pneumonia.
Validity of the cutoff values that identify pathogenic roles of the commensal organisms in pneumonia; the organisms include S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, M.catarrhalis, P. aeruginosa, A. baumannii, S. maltophilia, S. aureus, E. coli and S.marcescens.

We developed a new PCR-based diagnostic test for the pneumonia. We call it HIRA-TAN; it's abbreviation: Human cell controlled Identification of Respiratory Agent from TAN, which stands for sputum in Japanese.
The most prominent feature of the HIRA-TAN is its ability to differentiate therapeutic target and non-therapeutic target for commensal organism (The Japanese Patent (Patent No.4665203) obtained and PCT/JP2009/053976 pending).
HIRA-TAN combines the PCR system using cutoff value to discriminate the therapeutic target for commensal organism with the PCR system for non-commensal organism where the detected organism is concluded to be a causative pathogen (Hirama T, et al. PLoS One. 2011; 6(9): e24474).
That's why HIRA-TAN is a PCR-based comprehensive test by sputum and sensitive and rapid one, requiring within 4 h to complete.
