Figure Lengend Snippet: Flow diagram for participants included in the study. Unadjusted mean time to appropriate antimicrobial therapy using a 1-way analysis of variance test as a comparison: no statistical difference in uncontrolled means between PRE, POST, and POST-AS groups (44 hours, 25 hours, 26 hours; P = .069) at an alpha = .05 level. Abbreviations: BCID, multiplex polymerase chain reaction–based blood culture identification; BSI, bloodstream infection; PRE, before BCID implementation; OSH, outside hospital; POST, after BCID implementation; POST-AS, BCID coupled with antimicrobial stewardship.

Article Snippet: Biofire FilmArray Multiplex PCR BCID was implemented in November 2014 without AS intervention, followed by AS notification of results and active guidance on therapy communicated to providers in October 2016.
