OVERVIEW

Improving the Diagnosis of Bloodstream Infections - Advancing Technology and Quality for Better Care is organized by European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID) and would be held during Mar 28 - 31, 2017 at Hopital l'Archet, Nice, Provence Alpes Cote, France.

The target audience for this medical event for microbiologists and infectious disease specialists who want to get updated knowledge of the theoretical and practical aspects of current and advanced diagnosis and management of bloodstream infection (BSI).

The aim is to improve the participant’s knowledge of diagnosis/treatment, and to improve practices in order to be better prepared for the future. Course topics will range from current best practices for diagnosis to advanced technologies for improving management in a context of multi-drug resistant pathogens becoming more and more widespread or in light of new concepts and new approaches (e.g. biofilm or anti-infective lock therapy in catheterassociated BSI).

The course will focus on strategies to shorten time-to-result and to improve BSI detection (e.g. novel molecular tools), BSI diagnosis and management-based advanced technologies and how these advanced methodologies will be implemented in the next 5 years. The course will also cover a cost effectiveness approach of novel tool implementation.
