Make gastrointestinal testing simple with this multiplex molecular panel that tests for 22 of the most common pathogens associated with gastroenteritis—all from one sample, with results available in about an hour.
Gastrointestinal Testing Redefined
The etiology of gastroenteritis may be difficult to diagnose due to overlapping symptoms across syndromes. The BIOFIRE GI Panel is designed to help clinicians pinpoint the causative pathogen, thereby facilitating therapeutic decision-making.
The Power Behind the Panel
The BIOFIRE GI Panel can provide the essential combination of speed, accuracy, and comprehensiveness to enable a rapid, definitive identification of a pathogen.
COMPREHENSIVE
Simultaneously tests for 22 pathogens commonly associated with gastroenteritis.
How the BIOFIRE GI Panel Helps
Revolutionizing gastroenteritis diagnostics, the BIOFIRE GI Panel surpasses traditional methods by optimizing antimicrobial prescribing, minimizing unnecessary antibiotics, and accelerating the diagnostic process with rapid results compared to conventional testing.
Identify What Traditional Tests Miss
The diagnostic yield for the BIOFIRE GI Panel is 48.2%, compared to 16.7% from traditional methods.2
Improve Antimicrobial Prescribing
Testing with a multiplex PCR panel has shown to decrease the chances of patients being prescribed unnecessary antibiotics.3
Decrease Unneeded Downstream Procedures
Patients were shown to be 12.5% less likely to undergo endoscopy and 7.3% less likely to receive abdominal images when compared to traditional testing.3
