Point-of-care hepatitis C RNA test that enables same-day linkage to care.

Un appel à l’action

 

The Viral Hepatitis National Strategic Plan for the United States calls for greater than 80% of people with hepatitis C to achieve viral clearance by 2030*.  Currently, the diagnostic pathway for detection of hepatitis C faces many barriers, including complicated multi-step diagnostic algorithms based on antibody screening and RNA confirmation**. These algorithms require centralized testing technologies that may result in treatment delays and discourage
at-risk populations from accessing testing and receiving care.

Transforming Patient Care

With Cepheid’s Xpert® HCV, patients can undergo testing, receive a diagnosis, and seamlessly connect to treatment and care in a single visit. This efficient process has the potential to save time and can ensure more patients stay in care, leading to more people cured of hepatitis C.

“This simple to use test detects the full range of relevant HCV genotypes in about an hour and can be performed on a small volume of blood collected via fingerstick.”
