Watch now

Learn more about scientific innovation and the clinical utility of Monocyte Distribution Width (MDW) as a marker to aid in identifying the severity of infection.

MDW is a regulatory-cleared parameter exclusively available on Beckman Coulter DxH 900 and DxH 690T hematology analyzers. As part of the CBC-diff order, MDW can enhance the risk assessment of sepsis without the need to order additional tests. In this webinar, Dr. Sukhacheva from Beckman Coulter’s Scientific and Medical Affairs reviews current clinical data on MDW, while Dr. Sarani from the University of Kansas Medical Center discusses his experience in utilizing MDW in practice and the benefits of incorporating the MDW parameter into the sepsis care pathway at his institution.

Topics:

  • Review of MDW clinical data for early detection of sepsis in the emergency department and COVID
  • Real-world utilization of MDW in the emergency department
  • Q&A
