3 CLINICAL APPLICATIONS BEYOND BACTERIAL ISOLATE IDENTIFICATION DIRECT DETECTION AND DIRECT AST FROM POSITIVE BLOOD CULTURES

4 Gram stain impacted 42 cases (20.8%) MALDI-TOF ID led to a modification of empirical therapy in 71 of all 202 cases (35.1%), and in 16 of 27 cases (59.3%) of monomicrobial bacteremia caused by AmpC-producing Enterobacteriaceae. The most frequently observed impact was an early appropriate broadening of the antibiotic spectrum in 31 of 71 cases (43.7%). In total, 143 of 165 episodes (86.7%) of monomicrobial bacteremia were correctly identified at genus level by MALDI-TOF. 4

5 In 202/259 bottles where VITEK MS (Saramis database) was able to generate an ID, 189 (93.6%) were correct to the species level, whereas the IDs provided for 7 isolates (3.5%) were incorrect. 5

One Strep mitis/oralis (RUO) was called Strep pneumoniae (IVD) confirmed to be Strep pneumoniae by 16s rrna gene sequencing Off label use: Laboratory validated 7

16 Beta lactamase with cefotaxime Discrimination between E. coli strains that were R or S to aminopenicillins and R to 3rd-generation cephalosporins in Enterobacteriaceae that constitutively produced class C lactamases had a with a sensitivity and a specificity of 100%. Discrimination was more difficult in species expressing class A -lactamases, as these enzymes can generate false-positive results. Thus, the sensitivity and specificity for this group were 100% and 91.5%, respectively. Cefotaxime 16
