RCPE Symposium: Culture change - the modern diagnosis & management of bacterial infection

RCPE Symposium: Culture change - the modern diagnosis & management of bacterial infection, Friday 6 June 2014. The traditional techniques of culture and identification are increasingly complemented by new molecular technology, providing the opportunity for more rapid and precise diagnosis of infection. It also gives an opportunity to identify causative organisms and nowhere is this more apparent than in the diagnosis of mycobacterial disease. Over recent years we have come to appreciate the impact our prescribing has on the environment and how this influences the spectrum of disease in patients. The day will provide practical advice on the rational use of antibiotics. http://bit.ly/HUQDMT
