UTI Max™ Comprehensive Molecular UTI Testing
Some UTI cases don't respond to standard treatment. Patients with recurrent infections, complicated presentations, or treatment failures need more comprehensive testing. UTI Max™ delivers advanced molecular detection with expanded pathogen coverage for the complex cases that require clinical depth.
When Standard UTI Testing Falls Short
Not every UTI is straightforward. Recurrent UTI (rUTI) patients cycle through infections despite appropriate treatment. Complicated UTI (cUTI) cases involve structural abnormalities, catheterization, or resistant organisms. Treatment failures leave patients and clinicians frustrated.
These complex cases demand more than standard testing can provide. They need comprehensive pathogen detection, including organisms that standard panels might miss. They need the clinical depth to guide therapy when first-line options fail.
UTI Max™ is built for these cases. Expanded pathogen coverage. Enhanced detection capabilities. Proven molecular precision to identify what’s really going on when simple UTI testing comes up short.
How UTI Max™ Works
UTI Max™ uses advanced PCR-based molecular detection with an expanded panel designed for complex UTI cases. The technology is similar to UTI Express™ but with broader pathogen coverage and enhanced detection capabilities—more comprehensive analysis for patients who need it.
Specimen collection is straightforward: a standard clean-catch urine specimen, processed through the molecular testing system. Results provide detailed pathogen identification, giving clinicians the information needed to target therapy appropriately.
UTI Max™ is designed for cases where standard testing hasn’t provided answers—recurrent infections, treatment failures, complicated presentations. When you need more, UTI Max™ delivers.
Key Benefits
Comprehensive Pathogen Panel
Expanded coverage beyond standard UTI panels. Detects organisms that simpler tests might miss—essential for complex cases.
Polymicrobial Detection
Identifies multiple organisms in a single specimen—something traditional culture often misses. Critical for understanding complex infections where more than one pathogen is at play.
Built for Recurrent UTI
Specifically designed for rUTI patients who cycle through infections. Deeper detection to find what's driving recurrence.
Complicated UTI Support
For cUTI cases involving structural issues, catheterization, or resistant organisms. Clinical depth when standard approaches fail.
Enhanced Resistance Detection
Better insight into resistance patterns to guide antibiotic selection for difficult-to-treat infections.
Molecular Precision
PCR-based detection for accurate pathogen identification—no culture delays, no ambiguous results.
When You Need More
UTI Max is the next level when UTI Express or standard culture isn't providing answers. The right tool for complex cases.
Sample Report
ample UTI Max™ report demonstrating expanded pathogen detection for complex UTI cases. Comprehensive results support targeted therapy decisions for difficult-to-treat infections.
Who Should Consider UTI Max™
Patients with Recurrent UTI
Multiple infections despite appropriate treatment. Standard testing hasn't identified the cause. UTI Max™ provides deeper detection to find what's driving recurrence. Superior in identifying polymicrobial infections.
Complicated UTI Cases
Structural abnormalities, catheter-associated infections, and immunocompromised patients. Complex presentations need comprehensive testing.
Treatment Failures
Antibiotics aren't working, cultures are inconclusive, patients are frustrated. UTI Max offers expanded detection for cases that don't respond to standard approaches.
When UTI Express™ Isn't Enough
For most UTI cases, UTI Express™ provides the molecular precision needed. When cases are more complex, UTI Max™ offers the next level of detection.
Common Questions
What's the difference between UTI Express™ and UTI Max™?
UTI Express™ is designed for routine UTI diagnosis. UTI Max™ offers an expanded pathogen panel and enhanced detection for recurrent, complicated, or treatment-failure cases. Both deliver same-day results—think of UTI Max™ as the comprehensive option when standard testing hasn’t provided answers.
When should I use UTI Max™ instead of UTI Express™?
Consider UTI Max™ for recurrent UTI patients (multiple infections despite treatment), complicated UTI presentations, or cases where previous testing hasn’t identified the cause. For routine UTI, UTI Express™ typically provides what you need.
Is UTI Max™ available in all states?
UTI Max™ is currently available in non-MolDX states. MolDX approval is pending, with coverage anticipated in early 2026. Contact us for current availability in your state.
What pathogens does UTI Max™ detect?
UTI Max™ includes an expanded panel covering common UTI organisms plus atypical pathogens that standard panels may miss. Contact us for the complete panel listing.
Can I run UTI Max™ in my POL?
Yes. UTI Max™ is designed for physician office laboratories with Doc Lab’s full implementation and support.
