Abstract

Three rapid diagnostic test panels (Verigene BC-GN, BioFire BCID, and BCID 2 [RUO]) were compared using the Desirability of Outcome Ranking Management of Antimicrobial Therapy (DOOR-MAT) to evaluate potential downstream antimicrobial prescribing decisions resulting from the panels’ different organism and resistance detection. BioFire BCID 2 (RUO) had the best mean DOOR-MAT scores.

Abstract

We conducted a laboratory simulation to evaluate the contamination of environmental surfaces when using wipe vs spray methods of personal protective equipment (PPE) decontamination. We did not observe any environmental contamination with the bacteriophage MS-2 when bleach solution spray or wipes were used for PPE disinfection., In this laboratory simulation to evaluate contamination of nearby environmental surfaces when using wipe vs spray methods of decontaminating personal protective equipment, we did not observe any environmental contamination with bacteriophage MS-2 (Ebola virus surrogate) using bleach spray or wipes.
