Evaluation of a digital remote extraction analysis and monitoring tool for key performance indicators (KPIs) in the blood culture process
The tool was useful for immediate visualization and identification of hospital services with critical performance. These results suggest that integrating BC digital monitoring tools into clinical microbiology workflows is possible. Further studies will be needed to demonstrate that the implementation of BD DREAM™ can lead to enhancement of diagnostic accuracy, optimization of resources allocation, and improvement of patient outcomes.
