Superbug surcharge: The economics of MDROs and HAIs
Multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) and healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) threaten patient health and impose significant financial burdens on healthcare systems, necessitating extended hospital stays and costly treatments. Consequently, there is an urgent need for proactive solutions to combat these escalating threats.
This infographic illustrates the financial toll in the U.S., Europe, and globally, while highlighting diagnostic innovations that help reduce risks, improve patient care, and strengthen antimicrobial stewardship.
The high cost and human toll of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs)
Multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) pose a critical threat to global health, fueling healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), escalating treatment costs, and putting patient safety at risk. This white paper explores the human and economic burden of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), highlights high-risk pathogens such as MRSA and Acinetobacter baumannii, and examines the challenges of limited treatment options. Discover how advanced diagnostic tools, antimicrobial stewardship strategies, and innovative therapies are transforming the fight against MDROs to protect patients and strengthen healthcare systems worldwide.
How your AST results support accurate antibiotic therapy in the battle against bacterial sepsis
Sepsis remains one of the world’s most urgent healthcare challenges, responsible for over 11 million deaths each year. The rise of multidrug-resistant bacteria makes treatment decisions even more complex, underscoring the critical role of antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST). This white paper explores how accurate, timely AST results guide life-saving antibiotic choices, improve patient survival, and reduce the financial burden of sepsis care. Readers will gain practical insights into current AST methods, laboratory best practices, and emerging innovations that empower clinicians, microbiologists, and stewardship teams to combat sepsis and slow the spread of antibiotic resistance.
Defending against the rising threat of drug-resistant fungal sepsis
Understanding the complexity of fungal sepsis caused by Candida species may seem daunting. Which methods are effective in fighting elusive strains? Which tools are best at identifying them? What can those results do to help clinicians make better decisions? These are complex questions, but one thing is certain: Appropriate laboratory diagnostics like antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) and emerging research can help turn the tide in the fight against fungal sepsis.
Discover how Thermo Fisher Scientific gives laboratories and physicians the data they need to make critical decisions in cases of resistant fungal sepsis. Explore how your clinical laboratory can be part of the solution with advanced tools and resources.
Guiding treatment decisions for the critically ill: When is a true MIC not a true MIC?
Discover why accurate minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) results are critical for guiding antimicrobial treatment decisions in critically ill patients and combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Learn the difference between extrapolated vs. definitive MIC results and their impact on patient care.
Battling antimicrobial resistance: Innovations and strategies in modern healthcare
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is at the heart of a growing global crisis, as hospitals increasingly face infections that were once manageable but are now difficult to treat due to resistance to traditional antibiotics.
Download the new eBook and explore a systems-based approach in tackling antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Learn about key problematic pathogens, and gain insights into effective strategies for screening, detection, and testing of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) to support healthcare professionals and laboratories in addressing this growing challenge.
Tailored antimicrobial therapy in critically ill patients
In hospitals around the world, there is an escalating threat of multidrug-resistant bacteria with it being predicted that by 2050, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), including multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), could lead to more deaths globally than cancer.
Discover how the Bologna University Hospital and Professor Federico Pea have acknowledge this challenge and have developed a program to tailor antibiotic therapy based on accurate Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) values, real-time therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) data, and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) parameters.
