Hospital acquired infection

• Still waiting for positive blood cultures to start pathogen identification or resistance profiling tests?
• A positive blood culture takes up to 5 days
• Traditional infectious disease diagnostics are often too slow to inform physicians
• Prevents prescribing broad spectrum antimicrobial drugs while awaiting test results
• Hospital acquired infections can be managed with rapid diagnostics in 3 hours

Pathogen Identification

• PCR-less molecular-based identification of pathogen-specific sequence
• Directly from patient’s whole blood sample-not from positive blood cultures
• Rapid rule-out in bacterial, viral or fungal infections
• Capable of incorporating procalcitonin or other immunoassay in the same test

Antimicrobial susceptibility testing

• No clinical isolate or positive blood sample needed
• Molecular-based phenotypic test reports resistance and minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC)
