GAME CHANGER : IMPACT The GeneXpert® System fully integrates and automates sample extraction, amplification, and detection — all in one cartridge. On-demand. Just load a biological sample and the system does the rest. While implementing rapid MRSA surveillance testing with the GeneXpert® System, there were 138 patient care days saved and 230 more admissions, generating additional revenue of $1,150,000 during the 2007 – 2008 period.” Denise Uettwiller-Geiger, Ph.D., DLM (ASCP) Director of Laboratory Services and Clinical Trials John T.

GAME CHANGER : MENU The simplicity of the GeneXpert® System is often compared to a chemistry or hematology analyzer. Simply load the cartridge and the system does the rest. The unparalleled efficiency and ease-of-use will add unseen value to your entire institution. However, the “ripple effect” of rapid, real-time, random access results goes well beyond the four walls of the laboratory — everyone in your facility benefits from getting the right result at the right time, including your patients. And all of Cepheid’s GeneXpert Systems offer complete interfacing compatibility with your data management...
