Triage suPARcharged

The suPAR biomarker predicts critical illness across diseases by measuring the level of activation in the immune response.

suPARnostic® is a reliable prognostic tool that enables healthcare professionals to make quick and informed patient triaging decisions at emergency departments.

How to interpret suPAR results

Empowering clinical decisions

suPARnostic® empowers healthcare professionals to lead patient triage with confidence by making better-informed decisions backed by reliable biological data across diseases.

Implementing the biomarker suPAR in clinical care delivers faster and safer patient discharges, reduces re-admissions, unnecessary admissions, as well as hospital length-of-stay. – Freeing up critical resources, valuable time, and saving hospital beds for those who need them.

Improve patient care

Up to 22% reduction in hospital admissions and up to 6% reduction in hospital length-of-stay per patient

improve

Reduce healthcare costs

Up to €100-380 savings per admission depending on medical specialty and geography

“it is essential to have the help of biomarkers, such as suPAR, which can support the discharge decision”

How suPARnostic® works at the emergency department

Step 1

A patient is admitted to the emergency department for observation

Step 2

The patient’s blood sample is drawn

Step 3

The patient’s suPAR level is measured at the central lab
(~20 minutes) and fits existing hospital workflow.

Step 4

The physician gets the result and makes a triage decision

suPAR is a significant independent predictor of mortality of emergency department patients

suPAR is used in clinical routine in 48 hospitals

48 hospitals use suPAR in clinical routine for triage of patients in the Emergency Departments and COVID-19 units. Clinical routine is defined by the placement of two Purchasing Orders within the last 12 months rolling.
This period covers January 1, 2022, until December 31, 2022. Some hospital locations cannot be disclosed due to confidentiality.
