Gastrointestinal One PAP
The G.I One PAP® tests for a comprehensive set of 22 gastrointestinal pathogens. The panel tests stool specimens for common pathogens associated with gastroenteritis. Quickly identifying the correct pathogen can ensure appropriate treatment, improve patient management, and help detect infectious gastroenteritis which can lead to severe illness or death.
Performance: 98.5% sensitivity and 99.2% specificity
Sample Type: Stool in Cary Blair medium
Methodology: Real-Time PCR

Molecular Reporting
For negative results PCG Molecular will send your patients an email on your behalf within 24 hours if patient results are negative for “watch” or high risk results. Being placed on a watch is no reason for patients to panic. It doesn’t mean they have a virus. All it means is that we need to watch their cases more closely. We will send you a report and give you a sample letter to send to your patients that communicates the results and what next steps to follow. for positive results. You will receive a detailed report for those patients that test positive for any pathogens. These patients may require additional tests after treatment, along with a personal call. We can advise you of next steps and referrals if you need them.
