VIEWPOINTS SERIES: A Microbiologist's Perspective on Improving Lab Communication to Accelerate Antimicrobial Stewardship

SUMMARY

A lack of dialogue with the medical team, the need for infectious disease education, and the absence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) data can create barriers between lab professionals and other members of an antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) team. Dr. Rolando Soloaga, an associate professor and medical science liaison for bioMérieux, shares his perspective as a microbiologist in Argentina and offers suggestions on how diagnostics can foster cross-department communication and deliver wins for stewardship programs.
