Abstract:

Worldwide, all clinicians are daily dealing with infectious diseases in their fields and they rely on microbiology laboratory reports for evidence-based treatment of their patients. Nowadays, antimicrobial stewardship programs (ASPs) are becoming popular in health care systems in order to improve quality of antimicrobial therapy and patient outcome. Active commitment of clinical microbiologists in ASP teams and close collaboration of microbiology laboratory with infectious disease physicians is highly desired.
