Aim of microbiology diagnostics?
• Aid for diagnosis
• Identify treatment alternatives
• Base for empiric treatment alternatives• Predominating bacteria/diagnosis
• Aggregated levels of resistance
![Page 4: Diagnostic stewardship A tool for antimicrobial ... - Strama](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020707/61ff41a437c2431d5a64e9f8/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
A chain of factors influence the final results of culture and treatment
• Before the sample arrive in the lab• Sampling techniques• Requested analyses• Information given to lab.
• Bed side diagnostics
• Transportations to lab• Service 24/7, incl. loading of blood cultures

A chain of factors influence the final results of culture and treatment
• What we do in the lab influence the final report• Methods for species identification
• AST- determination methods
• AST- algorithms
• The one answered: Recommended by RAF
• The one tested: minimum …
• Individualized for selected patient(s)
• Interpretation and clinical relevance of findings

Today:It is not about:
• test chosen
• strain identification methods
• AST – methods, algorithms etc.
It is about how we forward our answers irrespective what has been done
First: Do what you must (might be a lot) not to delay proper treatment
Second: make a judgement what to report

Should lab avoid to give these AST-results (PHC)- what is your opinion?

How would you react on the following report:

1. Big deal, it was probably an ABU, she is better
now..
2. Did we miss to add patient information (again) –
call lab
3. Call lab – what are they doing – everything must
be cultured ….

Take home message
• There is a trust in the laboratories judgment
• The lab must aid the clinicians in the evaluation of clinical relevance of results
- Refrain from reporting clinically nonrelevant details
• Consider selective reporting in selected cases- An AST-report may signal that AB-treatment is needed
• Comments are really wanted and needed
