877. Synovial Fluid Testing Using the BioFire® Joint Infection (JI) Panel Potentially Decreases Time to Antibiotic Optimization for Acute Joint Infections

BACKGROUND: Traditional synovial fluid culture for acute joint infection (AJI) is time-consuming, potentially delaying initiation of targeted antimicrobial therapy. The BioFire® Joint Infection (JI) panel, a multiplex PCR for synovial fluid, has been shown to have 90.2% sensitivity and 99.8% specifi...
