January 2017—Becton Dickinson launched its next generation wireless rapid diagnostic system for detection of influenza A and B, respiratory syncytial virus, and group A strep, with new traceability and secure patient health record documentation features and functionality.
The wireless BD Veritor Plus System is designed to provide health care providers and laboratorians in physician offices, clinics, hospitals, and integrated delivery networks with objective, lab-quality immunoassay test results within minutes, while the patient is still on site.
The BD Veritor Plus System benefits from the demonstrated performance of the legacy system and offers new features to improve quality control by identifying QC results. The enhanced documentation function includes user ID, specimen ID, and test kit lot to improve traceability.
The BD Veritor Plus also offers the BD Cloud Connectivity Solution, which allows users to wirelessly transfer test data securely to an electronic medical record or a laboratory information system to enable data access across an entire integrated delivery network.
