Point-of-care testing, antibiotic stewardship, and clinical workflow.

Point-of-care tests

FebriDx® evaluates a host response to infection using a fingerstick blood sample. Review its U.S. labeling for the eligible patient population, how results should be interpreted, and test limitations before considering use in your practice.

Antibiotic stewardship

Stewardship programs aim to improve antibiotic prescribing and use. Diagnostic findings are one part of a clinician's assessment; a test result alone does not determine whether an antibiotic is appropriate. CDC provides a framework for stewardship programs, not an endorsement of this product.

Clinical workflow

When evaluating adoption, consider patient eligibility, staff responsibilities, specimen collection, quality control, result documentation, and follow-up. Follow the current Instructions for Use and applicable laboratory requirements. Workflow and financial outcomes depend on the practice; they are not guaranteed.
