Addressing one of the most common healthcare-associated infections
The continued rise in frequency and severity of Clostridium difficile (C. difficile)-associated disease prompted a need for rapid and reliable C. difficile testing, particularly in vulnerable elderly populations.
cobas® Cdiff on the cobas® 4800 System combines high assay sensitivity with rapid turnaround time and a minimum number of pre-analytic steps. Accurate and timely detection of C. difficile in patient stool samples facilitates earlier intervention for more effective infection control and transmission prevention.
