Direct Disk Diffusion Susceptibility Testing for Gram-negative Bacteria from Blood Cultures: Diagnostic Accuracy and Impact on Antimicrobial Stewardship

BACKGROUND: In order to detect multidrug resistant (MDR) bacteria, our laboratory routinely performs direct susceptibility (DS) testing from positive blood cultures. We conducted a prospective study to determine the accuracy, reporting time (RT), and antimicrobial stewardship impact of DS testing fo...
