Times of peak respiratory illness, rapid results and antibiotic stewardship are critical. Pharmacists look at treatment, as well as rapid testing, to provide evidence-based protocols that have documented both improved outcomes and antibiotic stewardship.

Read more as Duane Jones discusses how test-to-treat protocols can help avoid overprescribing of antibiotics and other antimicrobials that can lead to resistant strains that impact the community.

WBC. CRP. Lactate. IL markers.

How does procalcitonin (PCT) compare to other biomarkers and why does it matter when making antibiotic therapy decisions?

In this upcoming webinar, Mike Broyles, PharmD, breaks down how PCT differs from other biomarkers and how it can be used to objectively assess bacterial infection severity in the emergency department.

Join us to learn how PCT can help:
• Differentiate infectious vs. non-infectious inflammation
• Distinguish viral from bacterial etiologies
• Support safer antibiotic stewardship

Once nearly eliminated in the U.S., syphilis is making a dangerous comeback. Since 2011, cases have risen every year, creating an urgent public health threat.

As rates continue to climb, expanding access to testing, raising awareness and adopting new diagnostic technologies will be essential to reversing this trend. In her latest piece with MLO - Medical Laboratory Observer, QuidelOrtho’s Dr. Lily Li discusses the causes behind rising cases and how we can better treat the disease.

From one location to three — powered by answers.

Urgent Care Pros opened to solve a problem: too many patients waiting too long for the care they needed. When respiratory season hits and symptoms overlap — from influenza to COVID — fast, reliable answers become essential.
With QuidelOrtho’s rapid antigen tests and the respiratory menu on the SOFIA™ 2 Platform, their team went from a few tests a day to more than 100. Clear, objective results helped them protect families, limit exposure, and expand from one location to three.
Throughout it all, they had a partner who checked in, listened, and supported their growth – “It’s a perfect match.”
Hear the full story of impact and partnership.

Knowledge = Power. When it comes to respiratory illness, rapid testing makes a real difference. . Terry O'Neil explains how timely respiratory testing helps provide patients with answers when it matters most—so they can get the right treatment and breathe easier. Those answers also play a critical role in reducing exposure and protecting the health of the broader community.

“With testing, it allows you to follow up, give an answer, and appropriately treat someone.” – Dr. O'Neil
