Event Date & Time

DATE: November 11, 2019
TIME: 11:00am PST

Abstract

This webinar will explore how using VIDAS® B•R•A•H•M•S PCT™ (procalcitonin) and BIOFIRE® FILMARRAY® Blood Culture Identification Panel results can optimize antimicrobial stewardship in patients with sepsis.

 

Learning Objectives:

  • Discuss how to reduce antibiotic exposure with highly predictive low procalcitonin levels and positive highly multiplexed blood culture identification panel results                       
  • Explain the high incidence of unnecessary antibiotics in viral infections  

 

Webinars will be available for unlimited on-demand viewing after live event.
