1 Performance Information Vet use only Performance of plates read manually was measured in three sites. Each centre tested Enterobacteriaceae, streptococci, staphylococci and pseudomonas-like organisms. 93.9% of manually read MIC s were within +/- 1 log dilution of the reference microdilution panel MIC. Only rare (0.6%) very major errors were observed. Performance of automated read plates was measured in three sites (13,15). Among the isolates of gram-negative bacilli tested against 17 antimicrobial agents, automated MIC s were within +/- 1 twofold dilution of the manually read MIC in 95.3% of instances. One half of the discrepancies were with Proteus mirabilis ß-lactamase combinations, a problem that was resolved when the inoculum was dropped to 1x10 4 cfu/ml. Among the isolates of gram-positive bacilli tested against 11 antimicrobial agents, automated MIC s were within +/- 1 twofold dilution of the manually read MIC in 93.5% of instances Performance of breakpoint plates read manually was measured in one site (4) and compared to a standardized disk diffusion procedure. Enterobacteriaceae, pseudomonads and other Gram negative non-fermenting organisms, Staphylococcal species including MRSA and Streptococci and Enterococci were tested. Concordance was observed in 88.1% of cases. There were 9.6% minor discrepancies, 1.0% major errors and 1.3% very major errors. Arbitration of major and very major errors with a full range MIC procedure confirmed the Sensititre results in 53.4% of cases. A single organism/antimicrobial combination, the non-enterococcal Streptococci tested against aminoglycosides yielded a significant number of very major errors with the Sensititre System. These errors were probably due to poor organism growth in the Mueller-Hinton broth. The performance of automated reading of breakpoint plates was evaluated in a three centre trial (30) different organism-antimicrobial agent comparisons were made with Enterobacteriacae isolates against 17 antibiotics. Concordance between the automated read and manual read was noted in 97.2% of cases with 0.8% of very major errors, 0.4% major errors and 1.6% minor errors different organism-antimicrobial agent comparisons were made with P. aeruginosa isolates against 17 antibiotics. Concordance between the automated read and manual read was noted in 92.2% of cases with 1.8% of very major errors, 0.07% major errors and 5.9% minor errors. A study conducted by the CDC (6), resistant strains of Enterococcus spp were tested with Sensititre plates read manually and compared to frozen panels prepared according to CLSI (NCCLS) requirements. In summary, there was 100% essential and category agreement for ampicillin; 91% essential, 94% absolute category agreement (category agreement regardless if within +/-1 dilutions from reference), and 96% category agreement for vancomycin. Performance of manually read MIC plates against S. pneumoniae isolates against 6 antimicrobics was measured at CDC and compared to CLSI (NCCLS) broth microdilution test procedure (8). MIC s were within +/- doubling dilution in 98.8% cases of organism antibiotic combination. for individual antibiotics ranged from 96.8% to 100%. Manually read MIC s were within +/- 1 doubling dilution of MIC s from CLSI (NCCLS) reference broth microdilution procedure in 100% of cases (7) for well characterised S. pneumoniae isolates with decreased susceptibility to penicillin. PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS The agreement rates listed below reflect the18 hour fluorogenic autoread results compared to the same plate read visually at 18 hour. Data was determined to be in essential agreement if the MIC agreed with the reference result +/- 1 dilution. These results were interpreted to be in categorical agreement if they agreed qualitatively (S, I, R) according to the MIC interpretive categories in NCCLS M100 (27) and M31 (28). For trial sites, the overall essential agreement rate for Gram negatives was % and the overall categorical agreement was %.The overall essential agreement rates for the Gram positive organism data sets tested was %. The categorical agreement is %.

Each assay was repeated 8 to 25 times. The percentage of readings that fell within +/- 1 doubling dilution of the medium MIC ranged from 93% to 100% depending on the strain. This was comparable to the reproducibility of reading panels manually. Reproducibility of MIC tests for each antibiotic has been measured on 4-5 organisms tested times for all drugs. Reproducibility of manually and automatic reads was calculated as the percent of MIC s within plus or minus one dilution of the median value. Overall all results were >90% except Sulfisoxazole with Gram positive isolates. VET- PERFORMANCE TABLE V1.2
