and treating urinary tract infections (UTIs).
Rapid Test Laboratories: Enhancing UTI Diagnosis with PCR Accuracy
UTIs are among the most commonly diagnosed illnesses in older adults and a leading cause for antibiotic prescriptions in long-term care facilities. Historically, the majority of UTIs have been caused
by enteric microbes, which are prone to multiple drug resistance.
The rise of multidrug-resistant organisms has complicated the clinical diagnosis, rendering prior evidence-based guidelines less effective for diagnosis and treatment.
Our PCR solution allows for the rapid and accurate identification of pathogens and the detection of potential antibiotic resistance, enabling effective treatment to begin sooner.
Key Benefits of Our PCR UTI Testing:
Accurate Diagnosis within 24 Hours:
- Utilizes real-time PCR for precise pathogen identification and antibiotic resistance detection.
- PCR, a molecular technique, precisely analyzes the genetic material of pathogens.
- Provides a more definitive diagnosis than point-of-care (POC) antigen assays.
- 24-hour turnaround from specimen receipt.
- Offers higher accuracy than conventional culture methods.
Improved Clinical Confidence and Reduced Patient Risks:
- Detects polymicrobial infections.
- Unaffected by concurrent antibiotic use.
- Identifies potential antibiotic resistance.
- Aids in quick clinical decision-making.
- Reduces unnecessary drug exposure and adverse events.
