“I’ve been bitten, kicked, head butted and vomited on while doing swabs.” – Pediatric nurse

This is just one of the many quotes we’ve heard from providers about their challenging experiences with strep testing.

Proper technique is everything. If you don’t swab the back of the throat just right, you risk false negatives, misdiagnoses, and delayed time to treatment. This is a big challenge in pediatrics, as children actively resist the throat swab, cry, and gag.

Throat swab testing for strep throat creates:

❌ Anxiety for children

❌ Stress for parents

❌ Challenges for providers

❌ Inconsistency in testing

What if we could test with SALIVA?

With saliva, strep testing can be:

✅ Non-invasive and easy for kids

✅ Quick, calm and predictable

✅ Simplified via self-collection

✅ Consistent in detecting infection
