## Indications for use
The APAS Compact is an in vitro diagnostic system comprised of an instrument for automated imaging of agar culture plates and a software analysis module for the following use: The APAS Compact, when using its urine analysis module, automates urine culture plate imaging and interpretation to detect the presence or absence of microbial growth on sheep blood and MacConkey agar culture plates that are inoculated with a 1µL sample volume. The APAS Compact, when using its urine analysis module, provides a semi-quantitative assessment of colony counts that are used as an aid in the diagnosis of urinary tract infection. All urine culture plates that are identified as positive for growth by the APAS Compact, when using its urine analysis module, must be reviewed by a trained microbiologist.
