1. Calculation based on running the BIOFIRE® SPOTFIRE® R PANEL (~15 minutes) in an 8 hour shift.
SPOTFIRE Respiratory (R) Panel
1 PCR Test. 15 Targets. ~15 Minutes.
The SPOTFIRE R Panel brings diagnostic power to clinicians via a PCR-based expanded syndromic approach. In other words, the SPOTFIRE R Panel combines symptom-driven testing for a broad grouping of probable respiratory pathogens into one rapid test that aids in the diagnosis of patients experiencing signs or symptoms of respiratory tract infections, maximizing the chance of getting an actionable answer in a clinically relevant timeframe.

SPOTFIRE Respiratory (R) Panel Mini
1 PCR Test. 5 Targets. ~15 Minutes.
The SPOTFIRE R Panel Mini brings the power of targeted syndromic testing via PCR results to the front line. It tests for the 5 most probable viruses that cause respiratory tract infections, including influenza, rhinovirus, respiratory syncytial virus, and SARS-CoV-2. This panel runs on the easy-to-use SPOTFIRE System, which provides results in about 15 min.

Rethink the Power of Diagnostics with the SPOTFIRE Respiratory Solution to Potentially:
Inform Clinical Decisions
- High sensitivity, specificity, and reliability provides results clinicians can trust
- Contrary to tests that only detect the flu, SARS-COV-2, and/or RSV, a syndromic panel provides a fuller picture that may help inform patient management decisions
Optimize Operations
- The simplified workflow and quick turnaround time enable rapid and accurate answers during the patient visit, while reducing the need for callbacks or expensive and slow send-out testing
- This easy-to-use solution enables users of all skill levels to prepare and run samples
Optimize Antimicrobial Stewardship
- Receiving accurate, comprehensive results in a clinically actionable timeframe may inform diagnoses while optimizing care and antimicrobial stewardship
Improve Patient Satisfaction
- Using the right test, the first time to detect multiple pathogens may result in reduced follow-up appointments, swabbing, and testing, which could improve patient comfort, experience, and convenience
