The Genedrive® MT-RNR1 ID Kit is a worlds-first and allows clinicians to make a decision on antibiotic use in neonatal intensive care units within 26 minutes, ensuring vital care is delivered, avoiding adverse effects potentially otherwise encountered and with no negative impact on the patient care pathway. The Genedrive® CYP2C19 ID Kit empowers clinicians to make informed treatment decisions for stroke patients based on their individual ability to metabolise the antiplatelet clopidogrel.
