Antimicrobial Resistance Result

Preferred Label : Antimicrobial Resistance Result;

NCIt related terms : Resistant;

NCIt definition : A microbial susceptibility test result in which the growth of microorganisms is not inhibited by the usually achievable concentrations of antimicrobial agent with normal dosage, or microorganisms demonstrate minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) or zone diameters that fall in the range where specific microbial resistance mechanisms are likely in effect, or clinical efficacy of the agent against the microorganism has not been reliably shown in treatment studies.;

Alternative definition : CDISC: The growth of microorganisms are not inhibited by the usually achievable concentrations of the antimicrobial agent with normal dosages, and/or microorganisms demonstrate MICs or zone diameters that fall in the range where specific microbial resistance mechanisms (e.g. Beta-lactamases) are likely, and clinical efficacy of the agent against the microorganism has not been reliably shown in treatment studies.;
