Xpert® Respiratory Panel
The Xpert Respiratory Panel is a multiplex, real-time PCR test for the qualitative detection and identification of 13 clinically relevant viral and bacterial respiratory pathogens in under 60 minutes. Performed on the GeneXpert System, Xpert Respiratory Panel delivers accurate, actionable results with minimal hands on time, helping laboratories and clinicians rapidly differentiate the causes of respiratory illness and support appropriate patient management.
13 viral and bacterial respiratory pathogens all in a single test.

El impacto
Influenza-like illness (ILI) can be caused by a range of viral and bacterial respiratory pathogens. Seasonal influenza alone causes millions of infections, up to 5 million severe cases and 650.000 deaths per year.1 Additional respiratory pathogens such as hMPV and Mycoplasma pneumoniae can also contribute to serious acute respiratory infections.2
Children, older adults, and immunocompromised individuals are among the populations at increased risk from infectious diseases.3
Timely diagnosis helps distinguish viral from bacterial infections, and support clinically informed patient management and antimicrobial stewardship efforts.4
