CPE

(Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales)

CPE represent one of the greatest challenges for the safe provision of healthcare and infection control, prompting the need for earlier and more precise detection. Fast and accurate PCR testing with the GeneXpert® system provides standardised, on-demand and actionable results for better patient management. That’s the PCRplus advantage.

Challenge

Too Many High-Risk Patients, Not Enough Isolation Beds

Solution

Fast & Accurate PCR Testing for CPE in 50 Minutes
