Rapid identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Gram-negative rod on positive blood cultures using MicroScan panels

A. Infante et al.

Summary: Shortening the turnaround time of antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) of bacteria can significantly reduce patient morbidity, mortality, and cost. Directly obtaining faster AST results from positive blood cultures can provide reliable and accurate results 1 day earlier, offering a simple, fast, and cheap method for identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing.

Comparison of novel rapid diagnostic of blood culture identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing by Accelerate Pheno system and BioFire FilmArray Blood Culture Identification and BioFire FilmArray Blood Culture Identification 2 panels

Dorothy T. T. Sze et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the performance of different commercial methods for rapid identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) in positive blood culture samples, and found that methods such as the Pheno system, BioFire FilmArray BCID panel, and VITEK 2 all demonstrated high accuracy and consistency. Factors such as turnaround time, range of antibiotic choices, and hands-on time should be considered when selecting appropriate rapid identification and AST methods for positive blood culture in different laboratory settings.
