Bridging pandemic-associated antimicrobial stewardship gaps with diagnostics

Join Brian Raux, Medical Science Liaison at bioMérieux, in this webinar as he discusses the gaps in antimicrobial stewardship programs caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and how diagnostics can be leveraged to bridge those gaps.

During the webinar, Raux will cover how antimicrobial resistance has changed during the pandemic and how institutions can locally track and use their data. Raux will also explore the impact staffing shortages have had on the microbiology lab and how utilizing the syndromic approach can enable labs to do more with less.
