HIV Testing Raises Awareness 

hiv-testing-stats-19-0322

HIV still affects more than 1.1 million people in the U.S., and nearly 40% of new infections are transmitted by individuals living with undiagnosed HIV. Help protect your patients by establishing an early testing initiative with the Abbott fourth-generation HIV assays.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend screening patients at high risk at least once per year with an FDA-approved antigen/antibody combination immunoassay that detects HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies and the HIV-1 p24 antigen. Additionally, the U.S. Preventative Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends that clinicians screen patients between the ages of 15 and 65 and pregnant women.

Syphilis on the Rise

syphilis-rise-stats-19-0322

Recently, clinicians have started to test for syphilis using treponemal-based tests first, and then test only the reactive samples with a non-treponemal method to determine disease activity. This is a change from the traditional sequence of events, and the automated methods offer faster result turn-around times.

The number of primary and secondary (P&S) syphilis cases reported in the U.S. grew from a rate of 4.5 per 100,000 in 2011 to 7.5 per 100,000 in 2015 — a 66.7% increase. The U.S. Preventative Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends syphilis screening for pregnant women and those at increased risk of infection.

Identifying Hepatitis C Infections

hepatitis-c-stats-19-0322

The CDC estimates that roughly 3.2 million Americans are infected with hepatitis C (HCV). However, surveillance has demonstrated that up to 75% of those infected are undiagnosed.

The USPSTF recommends a one-time screening for patients born between 1945 and 1965, and also screening for those at high risk. According to the CDC, a one-time screening program could identify as many as 800,000 infected individuals.


Manage Sepsis with Procalcitonin

sepsis-procalcitonin-stats-19-0322

Studies have shown that procalcitonin is a more accurate diagnostic parameter for sepsis that better predicts mortality and serves as a more reliable biomarker than C-reactive protein, interleukins, or lactate levels.

Sepsis incurs the highest hospitalization costs in the U.S., with annual expenses of over $24 billion. In severe cases, patients with sepsis progress to septic shock, where mortality rates can increase by 8% every hour that antimicrobial treatment is delayed.
