Frequently Asked Questions

1. How accurate is the Bowel Health test?

The Newfoundland Bowel Health Test offers over 97.9% accuracy and is CE certified and MHRA registered for reliable home screening. This FIT test specifically detects human occult blood in faeces to aid in bowel cancer diagnosis. While highly accurate, any positive results should be discussed with your healthcare provider for proper follow-up and evaluation.

2. Who should use this bowel health test?

Regular screening is recommended for those aged 45 and above as part of routine colorectal cancer screening. The test is also important for people with a family history of colorectal cancer or polyps, particularly if a first-degree relative was diagnosed before age 50, and individuals with a personal history of colorectal polyps or related conditions.

3. How does the test work?

This is a rapid lateral flow test that detects hidden blood in stool samples that may not be visible to the naked eye. You simply collect a small stool sample using the provided collection device, apply it to the test cassette, and read the results. The process is straightforward and can be completed entirely at home.

4. What do the results mean?

A negative result suggests no detectable blood in your stool sample, which is reassuring. A positive result indicates the presence of hidden blood, which could be an early sign of bowel cancer, polyps, or other bowel conditions. Any positive result should prompt you to contact your healthcare provider immediately for further evaluation and appropriate follow-up testing.

Other Considerations

Β 

Diagnostic tests should always be interpreted in the context of other clinical information. A positive result should be reviewed alongside your symptoms and discussed with your GP for further guidance.

If your test result is negative but symptoms persist, it is important to consult your GP to explore other potential causes.

Self-testing alone does not replace professional medical evaluation. Test results should be considered alongside your medical history, and any diagnosis or treatment decisions should only be made in consultation with a doctor or qualified healthcare professional.
