The Need
- Hospital-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide1
- People with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections are 64 % more likely to die than people with drug-sensitive infections2
- Active surveillance of inpatients for MRSA is a strategy for preventing health care-acquired infections (HAIs) by MRSA1

The Solution
- Xpert® MRSA NxG is a qualitative in-vitro diagnostic test intended for the detection of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) DNA directly from nasal swabs in patients at risk for nasal colonization*
- Quickly identify MRSA-colonized patients who require contact precautions to reduce the risk of transmission and avoid costly outbreaks
* Xpert MRSA NxG was compared to a Reference Culture Method. See Package Insert for additional details.
The Impact
- Rapid implementation of infection control measures and patient bed management1
- Superior clinical performance compared to other commercial tests1
- Minutes of hands-on time with results in about 1 hour on a random-access platform1
