Join a comprehensive webinar led by clinical microbiologists Pr. Rodrigue Dessein and Dr. Ricardo Kosop exploring the integration of molecular techniques for carbapenemase-producing organism (CPO) screening. Learn about the challenges posed by healthcare-associated infections and carbapenem-resistant organisms, including emerging threats like KPC, VIM, NDM, OXA-48, IMP, and OXA-23 carbapenemase genes. Discover how advanced molecular screening methods can enhance diagnostic stewardship within antimicrobial programs, improve laboratory efficiency, and optimize patient management. Master the evaluation of multidrug-resistant organism spread, understand the impact of rapid negative results on clinical decisions, and explore solutions for detecting emerging resistant enzymes. Gain insights from both French and Brazilian healthcare perspectives on transforming laboratory practices and implementing effective diagnostic strategies for better patient outcomes.
