Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) 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 majority of UTIs are caused by enteric microbes, a group prone to multiple drug resistance. The development of multi-drug resistant organisms has complicated the clinical diagnosis, and the ease of following the prior evidence-based guidelines for diagnosis and treatment no longer exists. UTI/STI testing from Biovision Diagnostics can quickly and accurately identify pathogens and detect potential antibiotic resistance, so effective treatment can begin sooner.
UTI/STI testing helps to improve clinical confidence and decrease patient risk.
Detects polymicrobial infections
Identifies potential antibiotic resistance
Aids in quick clinical decision-making
Reduces unnecessary adverse drug events
Get accurate diagnosis with real-time PCR for pathogen identification and detection of antibiotic resistance.
All within 24 hours.
