susceptibility
– Agar dilution
– Broth dilution
– Microbroth dilution
• ISO standard
– Broth microdiluion
– Mueller-Hinton Broth
– Inoculum 5x105
cfu/mL
AST standards
• MIC taken as standard measure of
susceptibility
– Agar dilution
– Broth dilution
– Microbroth dilution
• S/I/R Breakpoints defined by

AST standards
• MIC taken as standard measure of
susceptibility
– Agar dilution
– Broth dilution
– Microbroth dilution
• S/I/R Breakpoints defined by
BSAC/EUCAST/CLSI
• MIC/BP supplemented by “expert rules”
for clinical use
The rationale for automated
systems
• More reliable AST results
– ?closer to “standard”
– Reduced scope for “user” error
– Reproducible
• Improved ID linked to AST
• Embedded expert rules

Phoenix
• AST based on broth
susceptibility with specific
cards
• ID currently biochemical
• Growth/reactions
“continuously” monitored
Phoenix
• AST only or Combo
panels available for
– GN (Enterobacteriaceae/
Nonfermenters)
– GP (Staphylococci/
Enterococci/
Streptococci)
– Streptococci ID/AST
Phoenix
• Readings for each well taken and calculated
every 20 minutes
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
ID uses red, green, blue and UV light sources
AST measures turbidity and color change
Each well divided into pixels
Readings taken for each pixel
Entire process takes 7 minutes
Pixel data analyzed for each well
Readings for each well compared to previous
reading and baseline
• Well is complete when specific amount of
change is not seen
• Substrate/antimicrobic algorithm dependent
– Instrument will post results when enough data
collected
Phoenix
• Expert rules within BDXpert based
on CLSI/SFM/DIN/EUCAST rules
bases

Performance
• ID
– Correct to genus >95%
– Correct to Species>90%
– Difficulties with difficult organisms
• Non-fermenters
• Shigella etc
• AST
– Concordant with other methods >95%
– Specific issues with specific drug-bug combinations
& certain instruments
• VISA/VRSA
• Beta-lactams & Pseudomonas
Performance
• ID/AST performance relies on
correct ID, correct AST plus
appropriate expert interpretation
– Incorrect ID can lead to incorrect AST
• Up to 5% errors mean that results
should be examined critically
Conclusions
• Automated systems can provide
– Reliable AST integrated with ID & expert
rules
– Improved speed of results
• Caution about staff skill mix and
interpretation of results
• Microscan/ Vitek 2 /Phoenix have similar
performance overall
– Results should be examined critically
