Concise communication title: wide adoption of rapid molecular detection of antimicrobial resistance markers for use with blood cultures: implications for national surveillance of antimicrobial resistance
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Rapid molecular testing for antimicrobial resistance (AR) provides an indication of resistance faster than phenotypic antimicrobial susceptibility testing. We summarize the adoption of molecular testing for AR among US acute care hospitals and discuss the potential impact on National Healthcare Safety Network's surveillance for AR.
