SG-APSIC1123: Diagnostic and infection prevention and control (IPC) performance of rapid polymerase chain reaction (PCR) compared to conventional culture PCR methods for detecting carbapenemase-producing organisms (CPOs)

Objectives: In this study, we compared the performance of a rapid polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method in detecting carbapenemase-producing organisms (CPOs) and its impact on infection prevention and control (IPC) measures compared with a culture PCR method. Methods: All patients requiring CPO scr...
