28 Reporting results EUCAST 2013 ESBL The cephalosporin breakpoints for Enterobacteriaceae will detect all clinically important resistance mechanisms (including ESBL and plasmid mediated AmpC). Some isolates that produce beta-lactamases are susceptible or intermediate to 3rd or 4th generation cephalosporins with these breakpoints and should be reported as tested, i.e. the presence or absence of an ESBL does not in itself influence the categorisation of susceptibility. In many areas, ESBL detection and characterisation is recommended or mandatory for infection control purposes. CPE The carbapenem breakpoints for Enterobacteriaceae will detect all clinically important resistance mechanisms (including the majority of carbapenemases). Some isolates that produce carbapenemase are categorised as susceptible with these breakpoints and should be reported as tested, i.e. the presence or absence of a carbapenemase does not in itself influence the categorisation of susceptibility. In many areas, carbapenemase detection and characterisation is recommended or mandatory for infection control purposes. CLSI 2013 ESBL When using current interpretive criteria, routine ESBL testing is no longer necessary before reporting results, ie it is no longer necessary to edit results for cephalosporins, aztreonam, or penicillins from S to R However, ESBL testing may still be useful for epidemiological and infection control purposes CPE If using current interpretive criteria, MHT does not need to be performed other than for epidemiological and infection control purposes and no change in the interpretation of carbapenem susceptibility test results is required for MHT-positive isolates. CPE producing isolates usually test I/R to 1 carbapenems using the current interpretive criteria + usually test R to 1 3 cephalosporin Leclercq et al, CMI 2013; CLSI M100-S23, 2013
