What is Revue Pathology?
The Revue Pathology platform is a secure clinician-led portal that allows healthcare professionals to request specific tests to meet the needs of their patients across the UK and Ireland. Our purpose is to be a catalyst for better health, enabling patients to take ownership of their own health via safe self-testing methods within the comfort of their own homes.
Extensive Testing
A wide range of testing options are available, including blood, faecal, urine, and swab/sputum. Clinicians can access extensive testing options and provide home testing kits to their patients to be completed on a specific day or time in line with their ongoing healthcare.
Patient Interaction
Patients receive ongoing support and notification throughout their journey, including reminders about when to take each test and any additional requirements as instructed by their healthcare team. Clinicians can easily alter test requirements via the Revue Pathology portal, seamlessly updating the patient notifications.
Live Tracking
Our interactive portal allows clinicians to track their patients’ journeys easily. Time-stamped results provide critical information to ensure that each patient’s health is closely monitored for optimal health outcomes.
Accreditation
All laboratories used by Revue Pathology are ISO15189:2012 and UKAS accredited, adhering to the highest standards in the UK. Our platform is secure and straightforward, adhering to all GDPR and security measures.
Patient Example
Diagnosis: Ovarian Cancer with bone metastases. The patient is in a lot of pain and finds it hard to travel; however, she is required to attend the oncology outpatient unit for blood monitoring to check eligibility for the next cycle of chemotherapy. The patient is dependent on hospital transport.
Solution: At her last chemotherapy session, the patient is given a Revue Pathology home testing kit. Through the Revue Pathology platform, the clinician requests the appropriate blood markers for the patient’s next cycle of chemotherapy.
The patient receives a text message the day before the test is due and another the day the blood test is to be performed. She uses our painless novel blood collection device and pops the sample into a local post box. Results are fed directly into the Revue Pathology portal to be reviewed by her oncology team. The process has removed unnecessary travel and stress for the patient, enabling clinicians to reallocate their time elsewhere.
