Effectiveness of Practices To Increase Timeliness of Providing Targeted Therapy for Inpatients with Bloodstream Infections: a Laboratory Medicine Best Practices Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Stephanie S. Buehler,Bereneice M. Madison,Susan R. Snyder,James H. Derzon,Nancy E. Cornish,Michael A. Saubolle,Alice S. Weissfeld,Melvin P. Weinstein,Edward Liebow,Donna M. Wolk +9 more
TL;DR: The meta-analysis results suggest that the implementation of any of the three practices may be more effective at increasing timeliness to targeted therapy than routine microbiology techniques for identification of the microorganisms causing BSIs.
