Routine and specialized cultures, organism identification, and antimicrobial susceptibility testing enable clinicians to select the most effective therapies based on reliable microbiological data.
In addition to patient care, the service supports hospital-wide efforts to improve infection prevention and control. Infectious diseases specialists contribute to antimicrobial stewardship initiatives, helping ensure the appropriate use of antibiotics to improve patient outcomes while reducing the risk of antimicrobial resistance.
