Panels Available
Respiratory Viral Panel
Blood Culture Identification Panel
Gastrointestinal Panel
Methodology
Multiplex Real-Time PCR Assay
These panels test for multiple targets
simultaneously
This methodology is real-time PCR
meaning that it amplifies and detects at
the same time
What does this Mean to You?
One sample
One test
Multiple results
1.5-hr turnaround time

Positive Results Since
Implementaion
These are just a few…
 Limited exposure to potentially hazardous bacterial
isolates in blood cultures
 Faster treatment and more guided treatment of patients
at the point of entry and after admission
 Quick diagnosis
 Faster antimicrobial therapy implementation to speed
recovery and reduce morbidity
 Admitting a patient versus not admitting a patient
