Fast. Easy. Effective.
Designed by clinicians for you to optimize blood culture collection and contamination prevention
The Steripath® Micro Difference
Reliable, contamination-reducing technology for better patient outcomes.
Steripath Micro optimizes the blood culture collection process by allowing for fast, easy, and consistent diversion and test sample collection. Using an active blood culture bottle- or syringe-driven diversion method, Steripath Micro diverts the initial 0.5 to 1.0 mL of blood into the diversion chamber, preventing potential contaminants from entering the culture bottle. Once diversion is complete, simply push a button to automatically sequester the contaminants and open a second, sterile pathway for blood culture collection.
Reliable Results When You Need it the Most
Steripath’s proprietary technology and easy-to-use design help you effectively reduce blood culture contamination and false-positive test results so you can prevent patient harm, and reduce unnecessary and prolonged antibiotic usage, length of stay, and hospital costs.
