Critical Assessment of Issues Applicable to Development of Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing Breakpoints

2011-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) interpretive crite-ria (breakpoints and cutoffs) serve to translate numerical data (zones of inhibition and MIC values) into textual categories that provide direction to clinicians as to whether a microbial isolate is likely to respond to a given antibiotic when adminis-tered at the recommended dosing for the site of infection. Historically, the Subcommittee for Antimicro...
