161. Assessing Trends in 1,3-β-D Glucan and Aspergillus Galactomannan Antigen Ordering to Improve Use
BACKGROUND: 1,3-β-D Glucan (BDG) and Aspergillus galactomannan antigen (GM) are commonly ordered. Overutilization of these tests increases the incidence of false positive results, potentially leading to unnecessary follow up testing, procedures, and treatment. The aim of this quality improvement (QI...
