18、sceptible, intermediate and resistant (SIR) strains of bacteria to antimicrobial agents in medical laboratories. This part of ISO 20776 specifies requirements for AST devices (including diffusion test systems) and procedures for assessing performance of such devices. It defines how a performance eva

19、luation of an AST device is to be conducted. This part of ISO 20776 has been developed to guide manufacturers in the conduct of performance evaluation studies. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

27、s of organizations employing this reference method (e.g. CLSI and EUCAST). 3.3.1 susceptible S bacterial strain inhibited in vitro by a concentration of an antimicrobial agent that is associated with a high likelihood of therapeutic success NOTE 1 Bacterial strains are categorized as susceptible by

28、applying the appropriate breakpoints in a defined phenotypic test system. NOTE 2 This breakpoint can be altered due to changes in circumstances (e.g. changes in commonly used drug dosages, emergence of new resistance mechanisms). 4 EN ISO 20776-2:2007 (E) 3.3.2 intermediate I bacterial strain inhibi

29、ted in vitro by a concentration of an antimicrobial agent that is associated with uncertain therapeutic effect NOTE 1 Bacterial strains are categorized as intermediate by applying the appropriate breakpoints in a defined phenotypic test system. NOTE 2 This class of susceptibility implies that an inf

30、ection due to the isolate can be appropriately treated in body sites where the drugs are physiologically concentrated or when a high dosage of drug can be used. NOTE 3 This class also indicates a “buffer zone”, to prevent small, uncontrolled, technical factors from causing major discrepancies in int

31、erpretations. NOTE 4 These breakpoints can be altered due to changes in circumstances (e.g. changes in commonly used drug dosages, emergence of new resistance mechanisms). 3.3.3 resistant R bacterial strain inhibited in vitro by a concentration of an antimicrobial agent that is associated with a hig

32、h likelihood of therapeutic failure NOTE 1 Bacterial strains are categorized as resistant by applying the appropriate breakpoints in a defined phenotypic test system. NOTE 2 This breakpoint can be altered due to changes in circumstances (e.g. changes in commonly used drug dosages, emergence of new r

33、esistance mechanisms). 3.3.4 non-susceptible NS bacterial strain for which the test result exceeds the susceptible breakpoint and for which there are no established intermediate or resistant breakpoints NOTE This is generally due to lack of strains with resistance to the antimicrobial agent when the

34、 breakpoints are defined. 3.4 breakpoint test BPT test that has the principal objective to provide categorical results (SIR) NOTE This can include limited range dilution tests or diffusion tests. 3.5 coordinator person empowered by the manufacturer or investigator with responsibility for the entire

Testing shall be conducted using both the test device and the reference method. 5.2 Methods 5.2.1 Strain selection An evaluation pro

The collection should include fresh and/or recent isolates from as many genera and species as feasible within the intended use of the device. It sho

49、uld include as many unrelated strains representing different degrees of susceptibility to the antimicrobial agents as possible. If a device is intended for testing a single genus or species, at least 100 clinical isolates should be studied. Stock isolates may be used to supplement the fresh or recent clinical isolates in order to provide resistant strains with different resistance mechanisms. A set of strains shall be defined to assess intra- and inter-laboratory reproducibility of the AST device. The quality control strain collection shall, as a minimum,
