Webinar
Urgent Care Rounds: Outpatient Infections and the Role of Multiplex PCR to Optimize Medical Decision
Dr. Janie French, Dr. Steven Goldberg • Dec. 12, 2024
Description
Infectious disease complaints represent 15-20% of visits to practitioners or well over 100 million visits per year in the U.S. A large number of these visits are associated with a subsequent prescription, with rates of overprescribing of antibiotics at approximately 50% for respiratory conditions and over 25% for other syndromes.
In this webinar, we will present common case scenarios, share targeted insights on the epidemiology of these syndromes, and illustrate how multiplex PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) with next-morning results can enhance diagnostic precision, treatment accuracy, and patient satisfaction.
Panelists
Steven Goldberg, MD, MBA – Clinician, UofL Health – Chief Medical Officer, HealthTrackRx
Janie French, PhD – Medical Science Liaison, HealthTrackRx
Facilitated by Ben Favret
