Multidisciplinary Approach to Improve Utilization and Cost Savings of Multiplex Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) Respiratory Pathogen Testing in a Large Community Hospital
BACKGROUND: PCR technology can be used for precise detection of infectious agents and improves antibiotic stewardship through: Accelerated de-escalation of therapy Rapid identification of pathogens Detection of resistance genes. In our center, basic respiratory Panel detect 11 targets and cost $100...
