Find Clarity in Your Respiratory Health Journey
When that persistent cough won’t go away or breathing becomes a struggle, it’s natural to feel anxious and uncertain. You deserve answers, not guesswork. Our Bordetella Multiplex Test provides the precise diagnosis you need to move forward with confidence and the right treatment plan.
Understanding Your Respiratory Health Test
This advanced medical test uses cutting-edge RNA detection technology to identify three specific respiratory infections that often present with similar symptoms but require different treatments. By detecting the genetic material (RNA) of these pathogens, we can provide accurate results that help your doctor create the most effective treatment strategy for your unique situation.
What This Test Detects:
- Bordetella pertussis – The bacteria causing whooping cough, known for severe coughing fits
- Legionella pneumophila – Responsible for Legionnaires’ disease, a serious form of pneumonia
- Klebsiella pneumonia – A bacterial infection that can cause severe lung complications

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, this test could provide the answers you need:
- Persistent cough lasting more than 2 weeks
- Severe coughing fits that make breathing difficult
- High fever accompanied by breathing problems
- Chest pain or discomfort when breathing
