Abstract
Embodiments may include an automated method for evaluating an infection status associated with a blood sample obtained from an individual. Methods may include determining, using a first module, a white blood cell concentration associated with the blood sample. In addition, methods may include determining, using a second module, a monocyte volume measure associated with the blood sample. Methods may include evaluating, using a data processing module, the infection status associated with the blood sample. The data processing module may include a processor and a computer readable medium. The computer readable medium may be programmed with a computer application. This computer application, when executed by the processor, may cause the processor to calculate a parameter using a function comprising the white blood cell concentration and the monocyte volume measure. The computer application may also cause the processor to evaluate the infection status associated with the blood sample based on the parameter.
