Analis invites you to their event

Diagnosis of Multidrug-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria - Session FR 1.30 PM - Session EN 3.30 PM

About this event


You are kindly invited to attend our webinar "Challenges & Opportunities in the Diagnosis of Multidrug-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria" taking place on Thursday April 29th.
There are two sessions: one in French 1.30 PM & one in English 3.30 PM (see details below).

You combat multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) and bacterial infection daily, so you know the epidemiology is evolving into a global health crisis. However, recently introduced treatments - with emerging options in the pipeline - mark a new approach in the fight against antimicrobial resistance. Join us in this webinar, together with Beckman Coulter, as we'll present the status of current drugs to fight bacterial infection, updated breakpoints and an antimicrobial treatment forecast.

After watching this webinar, you will be better equipped to improve patient outcomes and advance antimicrobial stewardship by understanding the benefits and limitations of:

  • Currently available MDRO treatment options.
  • Emerging resistance in Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
  • Updated susceptibility-testing strategies.
