The Hemoccult II SENSA elite test is a rapid, convenient and qualitative method for detecting fecal occult blood which may be indicative of gastrointestinal disease. It is not a test for colorectal cancer or any other specific diseases. The Hemoccult II SENSA elite test is recommended for professional use as a diagnostic aid during routine physical examinations, for hospital patients to monitor for gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with iron deficiency anemia or recuperating from surgery, peptic ulcer, ulcerative colitis and other conditions, and in screening programs for colorectal cancer when the Patient Instructions are closely followed. Serial fecal specimen analysis is recommended when screening symptomatic patients. The Hemoccult II SENSA elite test and other unmodified guaiac tests are not recommended for use with gastric specimens. |
