"We are one of the first hospitals in the country to use MicroScan.
6 Timely, accurate detection of emerging AMR is of critical importance in helping to ensure patients are protected against the risk of worsening infection or its progression to life-threatening conditions such as sepsis or septic shock. and Europe alone, 4,5 and one study claims that 10 million people a year could die from this global crisis by the year 2050. 3 Up to 50,000 people die because of AMR in the U.S. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has called antibiotic resistance public health’s ticking time bomb. 2 AMR is an increasingly serious threat to public health that requires global action. “Laboratories can have utmost confidence in the performance of our technology, which has been given number-one ratings by ServiceTrak™ for software ease of use and technical application support."Įmerging AMR threatens the effective prevention and treatment of an ever-increasing range of infections caused by bacteria, parasites, viruses and fungi, according to The World Health Organization. "The DxM MicroScan WalkAway system gives our clinical laboratory partners the ability to identify emerging resistance with the highest levels of accuracy, ensuring optimal patient care," said Joseph Repp, senior vice president and general manager of microbiology at Beckman Coulter. Building upon 40 years of trusted MicroScan technology, the DxM MicroScan WalkAway system supports microbiology laboratories that seek to optimize patient care, while reducing the risks, costs and operational burden of emerging antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
The DxM MicroScan WalkAway system uses direct minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) for detection of antimicrobial resistance, offering greater confidence in results through gold-standard accuracy and the broadest breadth of first-time reporting. 1, 2018) - Beckman Coulter announced today commercialization of its DxM MicroScan WalkAway system, a diagnostic solution for bacterial identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing for microbiology laboratories.
