Sepsis Management: The Emergence of Rapid Diagnostics in the ED

In this talk, Dr. Frank Peacock shares how newly available diagnostic testing can significantly alter the early therapy of sepsis and thus potentially save lives. Early objective results allow faster accurate targeted therapy, thus providing the potential to improve patient outcomes and lower hospital costs. Dr. Peacock presents on the T2Bacteria and T2Candida Panels, the first FDA-cleared tests to directly provide early species-specific results for sepsis-causing pathogens, in 3 to 5 hours after a blood draw.
