Minimum Laboratory Requirements for Testing Infrequently Isolated or Fastidious Bacteria Performs disk diffusion AST at least once/week if testing Aeromonas spp., Plesiomonas, spp. Vibrio spp., M. catarrhalis, Pasteurella spp., or Campylobacter by disk diffusion Performs broth microdilution MICs (visually read) at least once/week Possesses current CLSI M02, M07, and M100 Laboratory coordinated by director-level clinical microbiologist, ID MD or pathologist with expertise in antimicrobial susceptibility testing CLSI M45-A2 Section 9.1
Summary M45-A2 describes reference methods for testing several types of infrequently isolated or fastidious bacteria M45-A2 organisms generally do not require AST because…. – They may not be causing an infection – Infections caused by them are often treated empirically AST of M45-A2 organisms should only be performed – Following consultation with an Infectious Disease MD – In a laboratory that meets the qualifications suggested in M45-A Currently, there are no FDA cleared systems for testing most of the organisms listed in M45-A2

M45-A2 organisms generally do not require AST<br />
because….<br />
– They may not be caus<strong>in</strong>g an <strong>in</strong>fection<br />
– Infections caused by them are often treated empirically<br />
AST of M45-A2 organisms should only be performed<br />
