Your Challenges
Our Solution
CHALLENGE
Variability in Symptoms
Infectious diseases can exhibit a diverse array of symptoms, which could make it challenging to pinpoint the specific cause.
SOLUTION
Syndromic Testing
Syndromic testing is a diagnostic approach that targets multiple pathogens associated with a specific syndrome or group of symptoms.
CHALLENGE
Diagnostic Accuracy
The accuracy of diagnostic tools may vary, which could lead to delayed diagnoses and treatment.
SOLUTION
PCR Technology
PCR testing technology delivers high sensitivity, specificity, and reliable results clinicians can trust.
CHALLENGE
Prolonged Time to Result
Delays in obtaining test results may impede timely diagnosis, treatment initiation, and overall patient care.
SOLUTION
Rapid Answers
The BIOFIRE TORCH System provides results in about an hour, which may lead to a shorter lengths of stay and improved patient outcomes.
CHALLENGE
Antibiotic Resistance
Difficulty in accurately identifying pathogens and determining antibiotic susceptibility for effective antimicrobial stewardship.
SOLUTION
Comprehensive Pathogen Identification
Rapid identification of pathogens supports stewardship by minimizing inappropriate antibiotic use and enabling targeted antimicrobial therapy.
