A STUDY ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF THE NEW CLSI GUIDELINES ON ANTIBIOTIC SUSCEPTABILITY TESTING PATTERNS

Assessing the precise MIC for the Ceftriaxone using E-test. To determine what proportion of
susceptibility reports will be reclassified based on the new CLSI guidelines.Antibiotic
susceptibility reports of blood cultures, urine cultures,aseptic body fluid cultures growing
Enterobacteriaceae organism generated by the Phoenix machine will be obtained on a daily
basis.MIC for Ceftriaxone will be noted.If the MIC is <=2 for Ceftriaxone,those cultures
would be used to run an additional test - E- test.E-test gives us more precise MIC values
compared to Phoenix machine.We will analyze the data collected over 2 months. We will
determine the proportion of susceptibility reports reclassified based on the new CLSI
guidelines.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Antibiotic susceptibility reports of blood cultures, urine cultures,aseptic body
