Product Description

Polyps and bowel cancers can bleed in the gut, and the faecal occult blood (FOB) test works by detecting tiny amounts of blood which cannot normally be seen in bowel movemenets. 'Occult' means hidden. This test has an 85% pick up rate for bowel cancer and is a good way to see if further investigation (usually a colonoscopy) is required. People who receive an abnormal result will be offered an appointment. The medical professional will explain what a colonoscopy involves, assess the patient's fitness for the procedure, and answer any questions. This test is recommended for everyone from the age of 50 on an annual basis, unless you have had a negative colonoscopy within 5 years. This test has an 85% pick up rate for bowel cancer. Not recommended for lower risk individuals or those with haemorrhoids as there is a chance of a false positive. How does this home testing kit work? No invasive sampling techniques are necessary. We offer a completely confidential service and the test can be performed in the privacy of your home.
