We prospectively evaluated EUCAST rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing methodology for susceptibility testing directly from blood culture bottles in comparison to CLSI disk-diffusion method.

Implementing EUCAST rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing method for sepsis: lessons learned in a tertiary care center.

To determine the accuracy of direct microbial identification (dID) and antimicrobial susceptibility testing by EUCAST rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (rAST) methodology from positively flagged blood culture bottles (BCBs) as well as reduction in turnaround time (TAT) compared to standard methodology.

A prospective study to reduce turnaround time of microbiologically positive blood cultures in patients with sepsis in intensive care unit.

We prospectively implemented a diagnostic stewardship care-bundle checklist, 'Sepsis-48 DSB', with the aim of reducing intervening duration of key steps of automated blood culture diagnostics (aBCD).
