Find and fix inefficiencies in sexual health workflows
to help free up time for innovation

Rates of sexual health conditions are rising across the globe – and creating bottlenecks in laboratories. Already under pressure to be more productive and innovative, every diagnostic lab must step up to expand testing and support care to create new value.

Where will you find the time? By identifying and eliminating the time traps in sexual health workflows.

 



See how much time your team can save with a consultation to find the time traps in your workflows.

 

Help eliminate time traps with an end-to-end workflow that requires less work so your team can do more

8 ways sexual health testing can complicate laboratory workflows

Manual Processes and Error Prone Workflows

       Different Collection Tubes

       Different Sample Types

      Disparate Instruments

Add On Testing

Workflows Across Departments

False Positives That Lead To Unneccessary Follow-ups and Procedures

False Negatives Due To Inadequate Sample Collection and Assay Performance
