Description

Make timely and potentially life-saving interventions in meningitis and encephalitis cases with rapid, comprehensive results from this multiplex molecular test. Make Every Second Count Distinguishing bacterial from viral meningitis based on clinical presentation alone is not only challenging, but it can also be a matter of life and death—especially in the younger patients. The BIOFIRE ME Panel tests for a broad grouping of targets for fast, pathogen-specific answers that can help save lives and guide appropriate therapy. The Power Behind the Panel The BIOFIRE ME Panel can provide the essential combination of speed, accuracy, and comprehensiveness to enable fast identification of a probable pathogen. COMPREHENSIVE Simultaneously tests for 14 pathogens targets How the BIOFIRE ME Panel Helps The BIOFIRE ME Panel accelerates diagnoses, streamlining antimicrobial decisions and improving patient management by reducing hospital stays. Additionally, it enhances pathogen detection for a more comprehensive diagnostic approach. Reduce Time to Diagnosis The BIOFIRE ME Panel can potentially yield an up to four-day reduction in time to diagnosis for adults and children. Optimize Antimicrobial Decision-Making Rapid results from the BIOFIRE ME Panel have shown a two-day reduction in acyclovir and antibiotic usage. Improve Patient Management Reduce hospital length of stay for adult and pediatric patients by two and three days, respectively. Detect Pathogens More Often The BIOFIRE ME Panel can potentially increase the diagnostic yield in adult and pediatric patients 2.9 times and 2.3 times, respectively.
