Rigorous investigational testing documented the Xpert Flu/RSV XC’s high accuracy and speed. This winter, we plan to leverage the test’s unique design to quickly test patients presenting with influenza-like illness at Emergency Departments, out-patient clinics, and in selected Urgent Care Clinics."

The Need
COLLAPSE
Respiratory viruses, especially influenza, mutate rapidly and novel strains can emerge with little notice.
Overwhelming evidence now shows that rapid influenza and RSV tests lack adequate clinical performance and,
therefore, clinical usefulness.1,2
Influenza: Evolution in Action
Emerging Flu Strains are a Constant Challenge

The Solution
COLLAPSE
A quick, easy to use, next-generation test that is designed to detect and differentiate Flu A, Flu B, and RSV infection maximizes medical decision making – enabling real-time testing during a patient presentation.
Be Prepared with Extended Coverage
Extended coverage and redundant target segments ensure accurate and reliable detection of Flu A, Flu B, and RSV infection
Unprecedented human and avian influenza strain coverage
Enhanced infection control and antiviral/antibiotic stewardship
Improved operation and patient workflow
On-demand testing provides peace of mind to both physician and patient
The Impact
COLLAPSE
Single-test confidence will accelerate your laboratory’s workflow with on-demand, random-access flexibility. Combine performance with the capability to run other Xpert tests (including GBS, MRSA, C. difficile, CT/NG, and MTB/RIF) on Cepheid’s GeneXpert® System to achieve proven productivity increases in overall laboratory service.3-7
Shift your lab from reactive to proactive
Achieve rapid results and improve patient management
Early assay termination option: deliver results in as little as ~40 minutes*
Quickly deliver targeted therapies and peace of mind to patients
* For positive result with Flu only or RSV only reporting. 63 minutes for negative.
