Rapid sepsis and wound infection panel detecting 17 bacterial and 5 fungal pathogens with 9 antibiotic resistance genes from swab samples.

Details:

Sepsis causes long hospital stays and deaths. If a patient receives correct antimicrobial therapy within the first hour of diagnosis, the chance of survival is close to 80%; this rate decreases by 7.6% for each hour of delay. Rapid and accurate diagnosis of infectious agents with multiplex detection of 5 fungal, 17 bacterial, and 9 antimicrobial resistance gene agents in a single test.
