Point of Care MRSA Screening
iPOCT recognise that access to rapid MRSA testing is a key opportunity for healthcare providers, where the benefits of rapid results may include improved utilisation of theatre sessions and hospital beds. iPOCT are now able to offer our rapid MRSA testing at the point of care.
Obtaining a rapid MRSA test result is essential before admitting a patient. Having results in approximately one hour can offer flexibility to hospitals and Consultants wishing to add patients to their theatre list the next day or the same day and can avoid cancelling patients at the last minute because results are not back from the laboratory.
