Only when healthcare providers are able to identify whether an infection is present and if it is drug resistant in minutes rather than days, will we be able to move beyond empiric therapy. On-demand molecular diagnostics have the potential to do just that. Innovative new, on-demand diagnostics will help prevent the inappropriate use and overuse of antimicrobials and preserve our antibiotic weapons now and in the future.

If the world is serious about tackling the threat of drug-resistant infections, we need to fully embrace the step-change in technology that rapid point-of-care diagnostics represent.”
