Direct to patient at home c13 breath test

[Adam]

Now:

Book an appointment around limited lab hours, get to the lab, wait your turn, and do the test, which can take an hour or more.

Better:

Patients can order test kit online and administer the breath test themselves without going to the lab. The test instructions are simple. According to the manufacture, samples can be stored in room temperature for up to 6 months, which gives patients time to mail the samples for analysis.

Many patients would use such a service if it were available.

it is better to have the test done at the clinic. Even though the test is very simple, without the right training, you can still get false negative and false positive results.
