The Hemoccult II Triple Slides Rapid Test Kit is a convenient, qualitative procedure that uses a guaiac paper slide test to detect fecal occult blood. It features a Performance Monitor that ensures the guaiac paper and developer are functional on every tested collection card. This test is used as a diagnostic aid during routine physical examinations, for hospital patients monitoring gastrointestinal bleeding in cases of iron deficiency anemia, recovery from surgery, peptic ulcer, ulcerative colitis, and in screening programs for colorectal cancer. Positive results are easy to read, appearing as any trace of blue on or at the edge of the smear. The Hemoccult II Slides feature cards with three tests, allowing patients to collect three serial specimens conveniently at home using the Dispensapak and Dispensapak Plus Kits.
