Current Trends in Antimicrobial Stewardship through Diagnostic Innovations: A CIDRAP-ASP Webinar

This webinar explores the shifting landscape of the rapid diagnostic laboratory with the introduction of new technologies that provide antimicrobial stewards and infection preventionists with rapid identification of organisms and their susceptibilities to antimicrobials in hours versus days. This is changing how patients are screened for antimicrobial-resistant pathogens and increasing appropriate antimicrobial prescribing to enhance patient outcomes. This is the first webinar in a three-part series on the use of innovative diagnostics in antimicrobial stewardship.
