Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in the world. The appearance of fecal occult blood is often the first, if not the only, indicator associated with colorectal cancer and polyps. Other gastrointestinal disorders such as diverticulitis, Crohn’s disease, colitis ulcer, etc. may also be associated with the presence of fecal occult blood. There are two different types of FOB tests available, the traditional guaiac FOB test and antibody based immunological FOB test. The traditional guaiac FOB tests do not provide a high degree of accuracy. Immunological FOB tests are more accurate and do not require special dietary restrictions prior to the test sample collection.
This Fecal Occult Blood (FOB) Test Device is a rapid immunological test intended for the qualitative detection of fecal occult blood in feces by professional laboratories and physician office laboratories. The test is intended for the determination of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, found in a number of gastrointestinal disorders, e.g., diverticulitis, colitis, polyps, and colorectal cancer. This FOB test device is recommended for use in (1) routine physical examinations, (2) monitoring any bleeding in patients, and (3) screening for colorectal cancer or gastrointestinal bleeding.
