Problem
Veterinarians lack rapid and easy-to-use diagnostic tools for confirming canine respiratory diseases, such as kennel cough, which results in millions of clinic visits annually. Current diagnostic methods can be slow, leading to delays in treatment and potentially impacting patient care. The absence of rapid, point-of-care testing also limits the ability to quickly identify specific pathogens involved in kennel cough infections.
Solution
ControlPoint provides single-use, disposable, handheld diagnostic tests for veterinary clinics, enabling rapid detection of multiple pathogens associated with kennel cough. The K9 Rapid Test delivers results within minutes, allowing veterinarians to quickly address specific conditions and provide timely treatment. Test results can be instantly viewed on the ControlPoint mobile app using a QR code, facilitating easy sharing and access to information. By offering a convenient and accurate point-of-care solution, ControlPoint aims to improve patient outcomes and provide veterinarians with an additional revenue stream.
