PCR Women’s Health Testing Promotes More Accurate Treatments

Studies show that more than 95% of women will suffer from a vaginal infection in their lifetime, and 27- 41% of women of child-bearing age suffer from chronic bacterial vaginosis (BV), both frustrating statistics, especially alongside a high rate of treatment failure. Madison Core Laboratories’ molecular diagnostics can provide quick, accurate results to differentiate infectious etiology – STIs, loss of protective flora, the rise of nonresident flora, or chronic transitional states. Our comprehensive panel of diagnostic tests allows providers the flexibility to be more specific or broad depending on each patient’s scenario to deliver actionable information, fast.

How does MCL help with Women’s Health?

When it comes to women’s health, infectious etiology is complex. Furthermore, chronic treatment changes can ultimately prevent bacterial flora from returning to normal. Because of a high rate of recurrence of vaginal infections, physicians need actionable information from the tests they order. MCL’s PCR women’s health testing answers this need, with rapid, accurate, and actionable results, so patients can get relief sooner.

Madison Core Labs offers a comprehensive panel of PCR women’s health tests. This allows treatment providers flexibility to be more specific or broader in their testing request, depending on patient needs.

Madison Core Labs offers one source for Women’s Health testing needs:

  • Comprehensive Lab offering a wide range of services for OB/GYN.
  • ABC Complete Women’s Panel offers an in-depth analysis of Aerobic Vaginitis, Bacterial Vaginosis and Candidal Vaginitis!
  • In Network lab with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Alabama.
  • SUPERIOR Customer Service.

Women’s Health Info Sheet

What can MCL Women’s Health testing do?

  • Molecular identification of pathogens is rapid. Report received within 24 hours of sample receipt into laboratory.
  • Molecular culture does not rely on ability of organism to grow on artificial media. Uses genetic signatures within the organism for identification.
  • Diagnostic sensitivity is superior when using a molecular diagnostic solution.
  • Provides a comprehensive drug resistance panel to identify key genetic elements that impact treatment.

Competitive Advantage

Rapid turn-around time provides actionable intelligence to providers with easy-to-interpret reports.

Cost-effective solution as compared to other molecular labs that run large costly panels with little clinical evidence.

Clinical Indications

  1. Confirm the diagnosis of an infectious disease 
  2. Help in the differential diagnosis of a pathogen 
  3. Assist in the evaluation of patient prognosis 
  4. Monitor patient treatment outcome after infection
