Tem-PCR Healthcare Associated Infection Detection

 

The ability to perform true molecular multiplexing with DIATHERIX Laboratories' Tem-PCR technology provides the physician with a testing result capable of providing rapid detection and differentiation of multiple healthcare associated infections (HAIs) in a single molecular test.  The DIATHERIX Laboratories' Healthcare Associated Infection panel provides simultaneous testing for 14 common HAIs in a single test in four hours or less.  The power of definitive and rapid diagnosis that Tem-PCR allows improves patient treatment times and provides faster more accurate diagnosis of single or multiple HAI co-infections in a single test. 

 

 

The Power of Molecular Differential Diagnostics

 

Tem-PCRs unique multiple genetic target testing capabilities provides physicians the ability to utilize molecular differential diagnostics (MDD) in diagnosing HAIs.  By having the power to genetically differentiate between pathogens, Tem-PCR affords physicians a method to truly differentiate between infections that present with similar systems in patient populations.  Previously with Real Time PCR or culture methods clinicians were forced to run multiple tests to differentiate between pathogens that present with similar symptoms.   With DIATHERIX Laboratories' HAI panel, 14 pathogens are identified or ruled out in a single rapid molecular test.   The power of molecular differential diagnostics not only detects the infection or co-infection a patient may have, but also rules out other infections that may present with similar symptoms.   The power of MDD provides physicians with the information needed to treat infected patients more quickly and appropriately due to the pathogenic specificity of Tem-PCR.
