MySmartCare360® UTI is an advanced test that better addresses
polymicrobial infections in difficult cases where bacterial
interactions can impact antibiotic resistance.
ADVANTAGE RAPID RESULTS
MySmartCare360® UTI provides personalized results in less than one day from receipt at lab, while culture can take 3-5 days, reducing the need for empiric therapy and supporting antibiotic stewardship initiatives. Results are summarized in an easy- to-read report showing therapy options based on the patient’s individual infection.
ADVANTAGE IMPROVED SENSITIVITY
MySmartCare360® UTI uses PCR technology to identify commonly tested uropathogens, including fastidious bacteria and yeasts, that are difficult to detect by culture. MySmartCare360 UTI has demonstrated 95% sensitivity when identifying organisms, which is 43% more sensitive than culture.1 High sensitivity helps ensure accurate pathogen identification and UTI diagnosis.
ADVANTAGE BETTER ADDRESSES POLYMICROBIAL UTIS
MySmartCare360® UTI identifies specific pathogenic organisms and effective treatments for polymicrobial infections, which have been shown to occur in up to 52% of positive cases.1 While culture may return these results as “contaminated” or “mixed flora”, MySmartCare360 UTI identifies the specific uropathogens in the specimen – even when multiple organisms are present.
ADVANTAGE ALLOWS FOR MORE INFORMED TREATMENT DECISIONS
Rather than relying on resistance gene information alone, MySmartCare360® UTI provides personalized therapy options by using Pooled Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing (P-AST™), a unique technology that accounts for bacterial interactions that occur in polymicrobial infections that may alter antibiotic resistance.2

Real World Evidence

MySmartCare360® UTI testing is associated with reductions in critical adverse outcomes, healthcare resource utilization
and cost for complicated (cUTI).

The same MySmartCare360® UTI results
you trust, from the comfort of
home

Whether it’s busy schedules, limited mobility, or the patient was simply unable to leave a sample at the time of the office visit, incorporating MySmartCare360® UTI testing from the comfort of home can facilitate access to care as well as reduce the risk of exposure for both patients and providers. After a provider places an order for a home kit, the Pathnostics team will take it from there!
