Antimicrobials are essential, but they are often prescribed for conditions that are unlikely to benefit.

Christen Arena, PharmD, MLS (ASCP), MPH, Assistant Professor, James L. Winkle College of Pharmacy, and Clinical Pharmacy Specialist, University of Cincinnati Medical Center, and co-author of the October 2025 Open Forum Infectious Diseases article “Current Evidence and Gaps for Outpatient Respiratory Tract Infection Diagnostics: A Call to Action”, explains how diagnostic uncertainty contributes to unnecessary antibiotic use in outpatient care and why clearer answers can support better stewardship.

This discussion is part of the OFID Journal Club: Author Conversations series, where article authors explore diagnostic impact across care settings.

In bloodstream infections, susceptibility results often become available after therapy has already begun. Reducing that delay matters.

Fast AST approaches help laboratories provide susceptibility information earlier, supporting timely therapy adjustment. Systems such as VITEK® REVEAL™ are designed with this goal in mind for Gram-negative bloodstream infections.

LIVE WEBINAR | June 30 at 1:00 PM EST

Traditional blood culture workflows can delay effective therapy decisions in bloodstream infections. Organism identification, resistance gene detection, and susceptibility insights often arrive at different points in the clinical workflow.

As more laboratories evaluate molecular diagnostics, implementation strategy becomes just as important as turnaround time.

Join Micah Bhatti, MD, PhD, Associate Professor and Clinical Microbiology Laboratory Technical Director at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, and Jeffrey J. Cies, PharmD, MPH, Senior Medical Advisor at bioMérieux, for a discussion on the clinical role of molecular blood culture diagnostics and the role antimicrobial stewardship programs play in maximizing their impact.

Topics include:
• Limitations of traditional blood culture workflows
• Molecular diagnostics compared with conventional methods for organism identification and resistance gene detection
• Implementation considerations for institutional use guidelines
• Stewardship strategies that support more informed antimicrobial decision-making

The discussion features the BIOFIRE® Blood Culture Identification 2 (BCID2) Panel in the context of bloodstream infection workflows and stewardship integration.

Respiratory and sore throat symptoms are some of the most common reasons for pediatric visits during peak respiratory season.

🎥 In this on-demand webinar, speakers from Anderson Hills Pediatrics discuss how multiplex PCR testing fits into real-world pediatric practice workflows.

The conversation explores diagnostic clarity, operational considerations, and antimicrobial stewardship during periods of high respiratory illness activity.

🎙️ Featured speakers:
Kathleen M. Driscoll, MD, Pediatrician and Managing Partner, Anderson Hills Pediatrics
Kaley Meadows, MHA, Practice Administrator, Anderson Hills Pediatrics

Operational efficiency, clinical confidence, and patient experience often intersect in urgent care settings.

PromptMed Urgent Care describes how incorporating the BIOFIRE® SPOTFIRE® System with the BIOFIRE® SPOTFIRE® Respiratory/Sore Throat (R/ST) Panel into their workflow shapes both clinical decision-making and day-to-day operations.

Diagnostics sit at the center of antimicrobial decision-making.
Without timely and appropriate diagnostic information, uncertainty can influence prescribing, stewardship efforts, and healthcare resource use.

That is one of the core discussions in the OFID Journal Club: Author Conversations series, where authors of the October 2025 Open Forum Infectious Diseases supplement examine why scientific progress in diagnostics does not always translate into consistent access.

In this featured clip, Brandon Hill, PharmD, Field Medical Director, Medical Affairs, bioMérieux, reflects on the Open Forum Infectious Diseases supplement “Navigating and Advancing Market Access for In Vitro Diagnostics” and discusses how coverage, reimbursement, and policy decisions shape real-world adoption.

The world is watching the matches and public health teams are watching community health trends.

As international football fans gather this summer, cities are experiencing increased travel, crowded public spaces, and sustained population movement far beyond the stadium.

Environmental surveillance may help communities monitor pathogen trends during large-scale events where earlier visibility can support preparedness efforts.

Henry Ford Health’s laboratory team recently went live with the VITEK® REVEAL™ system—an important milestone driven by months of dedicated planning, validation, and cross-functional coordination.

This achievement reflects the expertise and commitment of microbiology, lab leadership, IT, and operations teams working together with bioMérieux to advance diagnostic workflows and support timely, data-driven clinical decisions. Their efforts play a critical role in improving patient care, particularly in high-stakes conditions like sepsis, where every moment matters.

"For patients with sepsis, rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing directly from positive blood cultures has the potential to significantly improve outcomes, reduce length of stay, and optimize antimicrobial use. We’re excited to have this novel technology available for our patients." – Linoj Samuel, Ph.D., D(A.B.M.M.), Division Head for Clinical Microbiology for Henry Ford.

We’re proud to support laboratory teams who continue to lead innovation and bring meaningful change into routine practice.
