Editors in ConversationHow Can Clinical Microbiology Labs Contribute to Antimicrobial Stewardship? (JCM ed.)Deciding how extensively to work up and report respiratory cultures is the worst. There are useful guidelines on how to approach this. But, in my experience, very few laboratories strictly follow these guidelines. That can be because of concerns about under-reporting pathogens or about over-reporting microbiota, or it can be the result of pressure from clinical staff to report more organisms than the guidelines suggest. Today, we’ll be talking with two guests about their study on how over-reporting of organisms from respiratory tract cultures can lead to over treatment with antimicrobials. Guests: Dr. Sarah Parker, pe...2022-11-1942 min $Let\'s Talk Micro$ Let's Talk Micro68: Respiratory culturesIn this episode Dr. Andrea Prinzi returns to the podcast to talk about respiratory cultures.
