Description
QIAstat-Dx simplifies infectious disease diagnostics so you can get faster results for your patients. All you need are a patient sample, a QIAstat-Dx assay cartridge and our intuitive QIAstat-Dx instrument. The QIAstat-Dx assay cartridges use multiplex PCR technology – also known as syndromic testing – to quickly survey many different pathogens in a single patient sample. The cartridges come ready with all reagents preloaded and use our trusted assay chemistry to provide comprehensive results in about an hour. The QIAstat-Dx Analyzer 1.0 is our flexible modular systems, perfect for labs of every size. Each instrument is made up of 1 Operational Module, which contains the intuitive touch-screen interface, and between 1 through 4 Analytical Modules, letting you test up to four samples at once (see "A flexible modular setup to meet your needs"). The QIAstat-Dx Analyzer 1.0 is a small benchtop unit that will fit in any corner of your lab. And now you can see critical results even faster with the QIAstat-Dx Analyzer 2.0. With our new Operational Module PRO at the helm, the QIAstat-Dx Analyzer 2.0 blends all the QIAstat-Dx features our customers love with some exciting upgrades. This enhanced QIAstat-Dx instrument introduces our Remote Results Application *, which merges lab accuracy with clinical speed. Now you can review and confirm patient results from any location, paving the way for effortless collaboration between central and regional labs. The QIAstat-Dx Analyzer 2.0 is more than just an upgrade – it’s a giant leap towards a smarter, more interconnected healthcare future. Break boundaries: Review and approve results from anywhere with the Remote Results Application, powered by QIAsphere. Stay in the know: Automatically receive notifications and software updates on your instruments. Customize to your heart’s desire: Easily switch languages, user roles, instrument configurations and more. You’ll save even more time with QIAstat-Dx connectivity, powered by QIAsphere*. With QIAstat-Dx connectivity, you can remotely monitor your instruments in real-time, receive proactive technical support and get on-demand epidemiology reports to support your institution-wide surveillance efforts. Simply install the QIAsphere app on your preferred tablet or smartphone or by accessing the QIAsphere web app through your laptop or desktop browser. *Some features require a QIAstat-Dx Connectivity plan. Flexible plans are available to meet your needs. Visit our resource hub to learn how syndromic testing with QIAstat-Dx can help you provide the best care possible for your patients.
The QIAstat-Dx Analyzers 1.0 and 2.0, combined with QIAstat-Dx assay cartridges, use real-time PCR to detect pathogen nucleic acids in human biological samples. The QIAstat-Dx Analyzers 1.0 and 2.0 and cartridges are designed as closed systems that contain on board all necessary reagents, enabling hands-off sample preparation. Detected real-time amplification signals are interpreted by the integrated software and are reported via an intuitive user interface.
Setting up and running a QIAstat-Dx test requires minimal hands-on time and just a few simple steps (see "Multiplex panel testing doesn't get easier than this"). Add the patient sample to the main port of the QIAstat-Dx cartridge using the plastic pipette provided. For our respiratory panels, you can alternatively apply the sample with a dry swab. This step is fast and easy to perform and requires no precision pipetting. Press the Run Test button on the QIAstat-Dx touch screen and scan the sample ID barcode. Scan the barcode of the cartridge you’re using. Position the cartridge on the instrument’s sample port. The cartridge will automatically move in and the test will start. After about an hour, view the comprehensive results.
