What is FebriDx?
Know Your Infections
Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) are highly contagious and represent
a major source of morbidity and mortality. The significant overlap in
symptoms and signs makes it challenging for physicians to
differentiate viral from bacterial infection and to identify which
patients require antibiotic therapy. More than 50% of antibiotics
prescribed for ARI are unnecessary, as the majority of infections are
caused by viruses, and may lead to avoidable adverse reactions and
antibiotic resistance.
FebriDx is the FIRST AND ONLY rapid, in-office test that uses a
fingerstick blood sample to help identify a clinically significant immune
response to ARI and differentiate viral from bacterial infection. FebriDx
detects elevated levels of Myxovirus resistance A (MxA) ? an
intracellular protein that becomes elevated in the presence of acute
viral infection and C-reactive protein (CRP) ? an acute-phase
inflammatory protein that is elevated in the presence of bacterial
infection.

TESTPROCEDURESFebriDx can be first used to help triage patients with ARI,
providing clinicians a pathway to diagnosis and treatm ent,
which leads to m ore efficacious m edical decisions
RIGHTDIAGNOSIS
- Identify and triage patients suffering from a clinically significant ARI
- Differentiate viral from bacterial infectious etiology
- Identify the need for pathogen-specific reflex testing
RIGHTTREATMENT
- Empower physicians to make targeted immune response-directed
therapeutic decisions at the point of care
- Reduce unnecessary antibiotic prescriptions and the possibility of
antibiotic resistance, allergies and toxicities, and adverse events
- Improve patient satisfaction by reducing healthcare costs associated
with misdiagnosis, repeat office visits, and mistreatment
RIGHTNOW
- Results in as soon as 15 minutes
- Single use, disposable test
- Provide optimal patient management
