“On the Front Lines” Webinar Series, September 12—New Technology and Workflow Optimization in the Microbiology Lab: Working Together to Improve Patient Care

During our September 12, 2019 webinar, titled, “New Technology and Workflow Optimization in the Microbiology Lab: Working Together to Improve Patient Care,” Dr. Allison McMullen, Ph.D., D(ABMM), will share how microbiology is meeting today’s clinical challenges in the context of Antimicrobial Stewardship Programs (ASPs).

Number of Hospitals with Core Elements of Antibiotic Stewardship Programs Nearly Doubled from 2014 to 2017, According to CDC’s Report

In August 2019, the CDC released an update on antibiotic use in the United States. The update includes data on antibiotic stewardship programs and resources, from 2018 studies. The CDC is continuously working to improve antibiotic prescribing and use as a part of the Antibiotic Resistance Solutions Initiative.

Starting July, 2019: “On The Front Lines” Webinar Series for Sharing Best Practices Implemented by Hospital Antimicrobial Stewardship Teams

Antimicrobial resistance is a continually growing threat, a threat that requires a team of minds working towards one common goal. bioMérieux has created a new webinar series to bring together laboratorians and clinicians to share best practices for optimizing diagnostic data and technology with the goal of preserving antibiotics for future generations.
