摘要
Time to reporting antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) results to physicians plays an essential role in antibiotic stewardship programs. Expert software has been developed for facilitating the microbiologists' AST review process. The reliability of the VITEK (R) 2 Advanced Expert (TM) software to effectively alert the microbiologist in detection of atypical and inconsistent AST results was assessed at the Labor Berlin-Charite Vivantes services. The results demonstrated a confidence rate of 99.3% in reporting fully consistent AST results to physicians.
