Comparative analysis of a rapid diagnostic test and scoring tools for ESBL detection in Enterobacterales bloodstream infections for optimizing antimicrobial therapy

ABSTRACT Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacterales bloodstream infections (BSI) are associated with increased cost, morbidity, and mortality compared with BSI by non-ESBL-producing bacteria. Phenotypic susceptibility data from blood cultures can take up to 72 hours to result...
