This rapid point-of-care (POC) test can accurately differentiate a viral from bacterial acute respiratory infection in just 10 minutes from fingerprick blood.

Acute respiratory infections are the single most common reason for visiting a doctor, but it can be difficult to determine whether the cause is bacterial or viral due to the symptoms being extremely similar.

The FebriDx® test has a 99% Negative Predictive Value (NPV) to safely rule out a bacterial infection. This reduces uncertainty when making a diagnosis, avoids the unnecessary prescriptions of antibiotics and enables more effective patient management.

The all-in-one POC test is easy to use and instrument free, making it fully portable with no need for expensive equipment.

What is more, FebriDx® can be used by a nurse or healthcare professional to free up physician time. In a 10,000 patient practice, a nurse-led triage with FebriDx® can save doctors 43 days per year with a projected cost saving of £40,000 with the lower cost pathway. (Lumos Diagnostics internal data, 2019).

For optimal patient management, improved workflow efficiency and up to an 80% reduction in inappropriate antibiotic prescriptions, make sure your practice or Urgent care setting is taking advantage of the FebriDx®.
