Unambiguous Diagnosis is Hampered by Conventional Sampling Methods
Better sample, Better treatment!
Lower Respiratory Infections
Accurate Diagnosis is a Sampling Challenge
Limitation of Conventional Sampling
Conventional samples are inherently contaminated by commensal bacteria from upper respiratory tract.
Poor Sample, Poor Diagnosis
Contamination of upper respiratory tract leads to inaccurate diagnoses.
Accurate Diagnosis Enables Directed Therapy
Poor diagnosis potentially results in undesirable under- or over-treatment.
Xheal Sampling Technology Enables Directed Therapy
Better sample, Better treatment!
Sampling Site of Infection
Capturing pathogen-loaded aerosols originating from mucosal surfaces of the lower respiratory tract.
Enabling Molecular Diagnostics
Our sample carries no contamination making it ideally compatible with fast molecular diagnostics.
Allowing Directed Therapy
By enabling fast molecular diagnostics, our sample allows for diagnosis within the golden hour.
