Advances in Blood Culture Practice with Diagnostic and Antimicrobial Stewardship

Speaker: Tammy Johnson RN, BS, CPM

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

Describe the impact of false-positive blood cultures on patients and hospitals with a focus on driving diagnostic and antibiotic stewardship, mitigating AMR, and false-positive CLABSIs
Illustrate the limitations of standard blood culture practice for prevention and the implication on CLABSI rates
Describe how modern tools and techniques can circumvent the collapse of blood culture protocol that frequently occurs in the presence of environmental stressors associated with nursing
Construct strategies to meet blood culture practice targets that sustainably exceed both established and anticipated quality standards

Presentation begins promptly at 6:30pm
