Automated Susceptibility Testing With Vitek 2 Compared to MicroScan Reduces Vancomycin Alternative Therapy For Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Bacteremia

ABSTRACT: Objectives: Variability in minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) with automated susceptibility testing instruments may influence methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) treatment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the difference in vancomycin MIC values and the impact...
