bioMérieux | Strengthening the Fight Against Antimicrobial Resistance | SAS Customers

Описание: Fast and actionable diagnostics can save lives. The sooner antimicrobial resistance can be identified, the sooner doctors can put patients on the right prescription. And that’s where bioMérieux enters the picture.

bioMérieux provides in vitro diagnostics solutions (systems, reagents, software and services) to the clinical field for diagnosing infectious diseases. Its customers include hospitals, clinical laboratories, pharmacies and government bodies. The company excels at identifying the causative agent of an infection and whether that causative agent – when bacterial – has any resistance. This work is fundamental for advancing public health objectives.

But doctors don’t always have the luxury of waiting for test results before acting and must turn to historical data to support initial decision making. When patients need medicine now, hospitals typically rely on an antibiogram, a report that helps clinicians decide which antibiotics to use on a patient while waiting for confirmation from a lab. However, standard antibiograms contain only general information about bacterial pathogens, thereby increasing the risk of prescribing inappropriate antibiotics.

Seeing an opportunity to improve the antibiogram – and ultimately improve the quality of patient care – bioMérieux teamed up with SAS.
