CultureStat is a rapid test to accurately determine the absence or presence of bacteriuria and differentiate between lag phase and log phase growth stage.
CultureStat provides insight to the infectious state of bacteriuria
CultureStat can distinguish between infectious (log) and non-infectious (lag) state microbial growth
CultureStat samples are examined in-situ, preventing genetic mutation from sample’s source state
CultureStat does not promote environmental microbial adaptation (from wet state to a dry environment as in agar plates)
CultureStat sample size is 7,000 times greater than other culture techniques
CultureStat is a culture methodology utilizing broth media
CultureStat results are accurate
CultureStat results are objectively achieved utilizing spectrophotometric and algorithmic analysis
CultureStat is a multi-layered test incorporating several input sources to compile data
CultureStat testing environment is controlled
CultureStat results are digitally recorded
CultureStat is completely automated, eliminating human error and subjectivity
CultureStat is faster
CultureStat results are available in less than 2 hours
CultureStat requires less than a minute of operator time per test
CultureStat allows accurate timely negative results preventing unneeded antibiotic prescriptions
CultureStat significantly reduces false positives and provides faster positive result times
CultureStat promotes Antimicrobial Stewardship
CultureStat low incidence of false negative and false positive results support use as an accurate negative screen
CultureStat provides rapid test results preventing incorrectly prescribed antimicrobial drugs
CultureStat allows a Provider to more accurately prescribe for actual infections
CultureStat can be used in conjunction with Antimicrobial Sensitivity Testing (AST) to target specific bacterium
CultureStat reduces cost
CultureStat does not require addtional software to purchase or install
CultureStat ampoules are the only disposable component
CultureStat test ampoules have a shelf life of five years
CultureStat ampoules do not require refrigeration for storage
CultureStat use as a negative screen device reduces healthcare testing cost
CultureStat promotes efficient testing by identifying negatives and reducing false positives
CultureStat reduces the total cost of antimicrobial prescriptions
CultureStat is used by Providers to accurately diagnose infection reducing untreated infection cost
