Practical Comparison of the BioFire FilmArray Pneumonia Panel to Routine Diagnostic Methods and Potential Impact on Antimicrobial Stewardship in Adult Hospitalized Patients with Lower Respiratory Tract Infections 2020-06-24 .txt text/plain 10746 417 30 These culture-based guidelines propose specimen-specific thresholds ranging from 10 4 CFU/ml for BAL specimens to 10 5 to 10 6 CFU/ml for endotracheal aspirates (ETA) and sputa to define clinically significant infection and minimize reporting of low-abundance, likely commensal organisms to reduce the use of potentially unnecessary antibiotics. The aim of this study was to conduct a practical analysis of a subset of those specimens comparing results reported using routine SOC methods to those obtained using the PN panel and to assess the potential impact of the PN panel results on antibiotic utilization in these patients. aeruginosa, 10 5 copies/ a Numbers in parentheses are the numbers of culture-negative results obtained for specimens from patients who received antibiotics with potential activity against the given bacterial target detected within 72 h preceding specimen collection. ./cache/cord-275757-zpblaa36.txt ./txt/cord-275757-zpblaa36.txt
