Comparison of Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute standards in antimicrobial susceptibility among the carbapenemase producing Enterobacteriaceae
Aim Carbapenems are antibiotics reserved for treatment of severe infections. Carbapenem antimicrobial susceptibility testing profiles were determined in a population of Klebsiella pneumoniae, and their resistance assessed based on previous and current Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute criteria. Materials & methods Isolates were examined using an automated antimicrobial susceptibilit...
متن کاملImpact of Revised Broad-Spectrum Cephalosporin Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute Breakpoints on Susceptibility in Enterobacteriaceae Producing AmpC β-Lactamase
We evaluated the impact of revised Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) breakpoints for broad-spectrum cephalosporins (BSCs) on the susceptibilities of 1,742 isolates of Enterobacter species, Serratia marcescens, Citrobacter freundii, and Morganella morganii. The 2011 CLSI criteria for cefotaxime and ceftazidime reduced the rates of susceptibility by 2.9% and 5.9%, respectively. T...
متن کاملAntifungal Susceptibility Testing: Clinical Laboratory and Standards Institute (CLSI) Methods
G.S. Hall (ed.), Interactions of Yeasts, Moulds, and Antifungal Agents: How to Detect Resistance, DOI 10.1007/978-1-59745-134-5_2, © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2012 Abstract Antifungal susceptibility testing has become an important tool for physicians faced with making diffi cult treatment decisions regarding treatment of patients with fungal infections. The Clinical Laboratory and St...
متن کامل[Laboratory detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae].
Detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in the laboratory requires an exhaustive analysis of the antibiogram and susceptibility to all beta-lactams, the implementation with phenotypic methods of screening as well as confirmatory procedures including the detection of the carbapenem hydrolysis, the inhibition of the enzyme activity with several specific inhibitor compounds and by ...
متن کاملReevaluation of Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute disk diffusion breakpoints for tetracyclines for testing Enterobacteriaceae.
We reevaluated Enterobacteriaceae disk diffusion breakpoints for the tetracyclines published in the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) document M100-S16, which were (susceptible/resistant) >or=19 mm/or=16 mm/or=19 mm/<or=14 mm for minocycline. A collection of 504 recent clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae were test...
