UTI Panel Testing
Rapid and accurate solution eliminates guesswork in diagnosing and treating urinary tract infections with advanced molecular testing technology.
Advanced UTI Detection Technology
Our UTI Panel utilizes quantitative Real-Time PCR to rapidly analyze your patient's sample in 24 hours. RT-PCR technology precisely detects the correct pathogen(s) and identifies antibiotic drug resistance, allowing providers to prescribe timely and effective treatment.
Urinary tract infections are one of the most commonly diagnosed illnesses in older adults and one of the leading reasons antibiotics are prescribed in long-term care facilities. The development of multidrug-resistant organisms has complicated clinical diagnosis, making accurate testing more critical than ever.
UTI Dx™ quickly identifies pathogens and detects potential antibiotic resistance, enabling effective treatment to begin sooner and improving patient outcomes.
Key Benefits of UTI Testing
Advanced molecular testing provides significant advantages over traditional culture methods
Rapid Results
24-hour turnaround time from specimen receipt enables faster clinical decision-making and treatment initiation.
Superior Accuracy
PCR molecular technique provides more definitive diagnosis than POC antigen assays and conventional culture.
Resistance Detection
Identifies potential antibiotic resistance patterns to guide appropriate therapy selection.
Polymicrobial Detection
Detects multiple pathogens in a single sample, providing comprehensive infection analysis.
Unaffected by Antibiotics
Results remain accurate even when patients are already receiving antibiotic treatment.
Improved Patient Care
Reduces unnecessary drug exposure and adverse events while improving treatment outcomes.
