What is the difference between the FIT test and the FOB test?

The faecal immunochemical test (FIT) is a more recent version of the faecal occult blood (FOB) test. SELFCheck is a FIT test and provides a more accurate result than the common FOB tests used in current NHS screening programmes. The benefits of the FIT test is that it can be more sensitive and does not suffer from interference from diet.

How sensitive is the SELFCheck Bowel Health Test?

The test detects 30µg/g of faeces which is more sensitive than most NHS screening criteria.

Do I need to test on more than one occasion?

Colon polyps can bleed intermittently so a single FIT or FOB test, although very sensitive, might give a negative result. Using two or more tests on different occasions can statistically give a better chance of detecting blood in the sample.

Is it easy to read the result?

Yes, it is just like a pregnancy test: Two lines in the result window is a positive result and one line is negative.

What is the advice following a positive test result?

Make an appointment to see your GP and mention that you have had a positive result with a FIT test kit.
