Molecular UTI testing (PCR) offers clear benefits over traditional culture and sensitivity (C&S) testing for residents in Memory Care units of Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs). Many residents with dementia or cognitive decline have difficulty providing clean-catch urine samples, which makes it challenging to diagnose or rule out urinary tract infections (UTIs). In many cases, the only way to collect a sample is by swabbing a urine-soaked brief.
Wound infection diagnostics play a crucial role in determining effective treatments for infected wounds. Two primary methods are used: Molecular Diagnostics and Traditional Culture and Sensitivity Testing. Both have distinct approaches and offer unique benefits and limitations when it comes to pathogen identification, antibiotic resistance detection, and infection management...
In the era of rapidly evolving superbugs, understanding antibiotic resistance has never been more critical. Molecular PCR testing plays a pivotal role in this battle, especially when it comes to detecting resistant genes in bacteria. When a molecular PCR test detects these genes, it is not identifying a problem in the patient but rather in the bacteria causing the infection. These resistant genes are genetic instructions...
