?? New Research Publication: Part 1 Results - Transforming UTI Management Through PCR Testing We're excited to share results from Part 1 of our large-scale clinical study comparing PCR to conventional culture and sensitivity testing for complicated UTIs. Key findings from Part 1 analysis (362 patients): ?? Significantly better clinical outcomes with PCR-guided treatment (88.08% vs 78.11%, p = 0.011) ? Faster results: PCR turnaround time was less than half that of conventional testing (49.68 vs 104.4 hours, p < 0.001) ???? Significantly higher healthcare provider satisfaction scores with PCR-guided decision-making (23.95 vs 20.64, p < 0.001) This initial analysis demonstrates how molecular diagnostics can address a critical challenge in healthcare: managing complicated UTIs while minimizing antibiotic overprescription and improving patient care. ??

In my nearly two decades of clinical experience, I have found urinary tract infections (UTIs) to be more complex and challenging than I would have anticipated, largely due to the issues surrounding the overprescription of empiric antibiotics and the potentially lethal consequences of UTIs, particularly for older clients with paraplegia or tetraplegia. ? I have been closely following a study funded by my good friend Roel Chavez and his companies, Doc Lab Inc. and Soft Cell Laboratories, in collaboration with other clinicians across the country. The purpose of this study (Part 1 of 2) is to assess and compare the clinical utility of molecular testing (PCR) versus conventional culture and sensitivity (C&S) in managing complicated UTIs (cUTIs) to determine optimal management strategies for these patients. Unsurprisingly, treatments guided by PCR results have shown significantly better clinical outcomes compared to those guided by conventional C&S results. I am pleased to see innovation progressing in this area of medicine. I firmly believe this technology will save lives. https://lnkd.in/gcbyrFEi
