Wound Care PCR Panel
Precise Pathogen Identification for
Chronic Wounds

Detect and identify pathogens causing wound infections, including drug-resistant
organisms, for targeted treatment.

What is the Wound Care PCR Panel?

The Wound Care PCR Panel uses advanced molecular diagnostics to detect pathogens responsible for chronic wound infections. By identifying bacteria and fungi, including drug-resistant organisms, this test supports precise and effective treatment strategies.

Why It Matters:

Chronic wounds often harbor multiple pathogens that delay healing.

Accurate detection helps guide targeted therapies, minimizing complications and antibiotic misuse.

Why is the Wound Care PCR Panel Unique?

Multi-Pathogen Detection:

Identifies bacteria and fungi in a single test.

Targets Resistant Organisms:

Detects multi-drug-resistant organisms (e.g., MRSA, VRE).

Improves Healing Outcomes:

Helps clinicians select the right antibiotics or antifungals to promote faster healing.

Supports Chronic Wound Management:

Ideal for non-healing wounds and complicated infections.

Rapid Results:

Provides actionable insights within 24–48 hours to guide treatment quickly.

What Pathogens Does the Wound Care PCR Panel Identify?

The panel identifies a comprehensive range of bacterial and fungal pathogens, including

 

Bacterial Pathogens:

Staphylococcus aureus (including MRSA)

Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Enterococcus species (including VRE)

Escherichia
coli

Proteus
mirabilis

Other Pathogens:

Candida
albicans

Candida
glabrata

This panel ensures that multiple infections are screened efficiently, avoiding the need for
multiple individual tests.
