Device Characteristics
Definition
A gastrointestinal pathogen panel multiplex nucleic acid assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic device intended to simultaneously detect and identify multiple gastrointestinal microbial nucleic acids extracted from human stool specimens. The detection and identification of a specific gastrointestinal microbial nucleic acid from individuals exhibiting signs and/or symptoms of gastrointestinal infection aids in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal infection when used in conjunction with clinical evaluation and other laboratory findings.
