Your compass for disease incidence and prevalence
Confidently navigate the ebb and flow of infectious diseases in your community – and beyond – with QIAsphere Insights. With data from your own QIAstat-Dx instruments and de-identified data from instruments around the world, track everything from pathogen diversity, to rates of co-detection, to Ct value measures. With QIAsphere Insights, the power of clinical epidemiology is in your hands.
Could you be underdiagnosing respiratory infections?
If you're solely relying on low-plex testing, our data suggests you could be missing crucial information. Download our recent study to learn more.

Useful findings from the Insights dashboard
Low-plex doesn’t cut it for respiratory infections
Our Insights dashboard shows that if you only test your patients for a few viral respiratory pathogens (Influenza A, Influenza B, RSV and SARS-CoV-2), you could be missing a huge proportion of positive cases.
A tale of two (types of) pathogens
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that up to 50% of all outpatient antibiotic use may be unnecessary or inappropriate in selection, dose and duration (https://www.cdc.gov/antibiotic-use/data/outpatient-prescribing/index.html).
This rings true with results from our Insights dashboard for respiratory infections. In 2022, bacteria accounted for a very small percentage of positive detections, with viruses making up the vast majority.

Data is aggregated from QIAsphere-connected QIAstat-Dx instruments only. Not all QIAstat-Dx instruments are connected to QIAsphere.
Access to the QIAsphere Insights dashboard requires a QIAstat-Dx Connectivity plan. Flexible plans are available to meet your lab’s needs.
