310. The Impact of Microscan versus Vitek-2 for Automated Susceptibility Testing on the Utilization of Vancomycin Alternatives for the Treatment of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Bacteremia

BACKGROUND: Automated susceptibility testing (AST) provides minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) to guide effective antibiotic therapy. AST is critical for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia, as susceptible MIC values ≥ 1.5 µg/mL are associated with vancomycin (VAN) fai...
