项目概要/摘要 细菌学（BACT）部门目前在抗生素敏感性测试（AST）方面的能力依赖于 设备提供不一致的报告，并经常要求我们退回到方法， 给出定性结果。这两种情况都使我们无法跟踪任何可能性的趋势。的 Sensititre AST系统提供一致的定量结果，当与AIM自动 自动上板机，将大大提高样品处理的效率和准确性。BIOMIC V3 酶标仪和数据管理系统将根据最新的AST断点， 临床和实验室标准化协会（CLSI）指南和可量化数据， 抗生素耐药性追踪有了这种新的数据管理能力，我们将能够参与 NAHLN抗生素耐药性（AMR）试点计划。

Project Summary / Abstract The current capabilities of the Bacteriology (BACT) section in antibiotic sensitivity testing (AST) rely on equipment that provides inconsistent reporting and often requires us to fall back to methods that only give qualitative results. Both of which make it impossible to track any trends in susceptibilities. The Sensititre AST system provides consistent, quantitative results, and when paired with the AIM automated plate-loader, would increase the efficiency and accuracy of sample processing greatly. The BIOMIC V3 plate reader and data management system would give us AST breakpoints based on the most current Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines and quantifiable data that would allow for antibiotic resistance tracking. With this new data management capability, we would be able to participate in the NAHLN Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Pilot Program.
