June 12, 2019 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci – Friend or Foe?
Presenter:
- Arick Sabin, DO, MPH, is a practicing ID physician at Gundersen Health System in La Crosse WI
Description of Session:
Coagulase negative staphylococcus (CoNS) are commonly considered normal flora in most cultures and not fully identified or treated, however, current thinking is changing as these organisms are becoming associated with true infections requiring treatment. Dr. Sabin will discuss which coagulase negative staphylococci are becoming recognized as being more pathogenic and when they require further identification and susceptibility testing by the laboratory.
A certificate of participation will be granted to each participant based on 1.0 contact hours of instruction toward credit.
