Prostatitis

Our Prostatitis test is a post-massage urine and/or semen based test designed to identify pathogens commonly associated with acute or chronic prostatitis while determining the best treatment options for the patient.  Utilizing PCR technology, we are able to detect the presence of pathogens as well as the presence of antibiotic resistant genes.  PCR is paired with our internally validated methods for testing Antibiotic Sensitivity Testing of the identified pathogens to ensure personalized therapy options for the patient.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOUR PROVIDER UPDATED THEIR ANTIBIOTIC DATABASE? 

As antibiotic usage recommendations evolve in response to new scientific discoveries, advances in technology, and changes in clinical practice, references such as CLSI ensure laboratory procedures and treatment recommendations remain current and effective.  At EmeritusDX, our references are updated at least annually to keep up with current recommendations.

Our comprehensive test was developed to deliver results for even the most difficult cases to diagnose and treat.  By targeting 31 uropathogens, 38 antibiotic resistant genes, and phenotypical evaluation of the 22 most recommended antibiotics for treatment, you can feel confident in getting to the right answer.
