The Need
- Up to 30% of the population is asymptomatically colonized with S. aureus1
- S. aureus colonization can cause life-threatening surgical site infections or other infections in non-surgical patients that increase morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs1
- Perioperative therapeutic strategies vary depending on colonization of MRSA or MSSA2

The Solution
- Xpert SA Nasal Complete is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test designed for rapid detection of S. aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) from nasal swabs in patients at risk for nasal colonization*
- Rapid identification of S. aureus nasal carriers followed by immediate implementation infection control strategies can reduce the number of surgical-site S. aureus infections acquired in the hospital by nearly 60%3
