Molecular testing of children with gastroenteritis improved pathogen detection and decreased the likelihood of return visits to a healthcare provider. A reminder that the benefits of diagnostic advances may extend beyond finding "treatable" pathogens. https://t.co/GVztZMenmj

Work by @MelissaPenderMD @SKThroneberry @UofUInternalMed @Intermountain describing potential for over-treatment of CDiff positivity on GI PCR panels, and need for consideration of pre-test probability (which was assoc w/toxin positivity). @UtahIMCMRs

@MelissaPenderMD @GlobalGutHealth Syndromic panel testing among patients with infectious diarrhea Patients with a positive Clostridioides difficile PCR were likely to receive treatment regardless of pre-test probability or CD toxin results https://t.co/KsuwjiIop0
