2168. Comparison of Rapid Diagnostic Tests for Bloodstream Infections Using Desirability of Outcome Ranking Management of Antimicrobial Therapy (DOOR-MAT)

摘要

BackgroundRapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for bloodstream infection (BSIs) are increasingly common. Decisions regarding which RDT to implement remains a clinical challenge given the diversity of organisms and resistance mechanisms detected by different platforms. The desirability of Outcome Ranking Management of Antimicrobial Therapy (DOOR-MAT) has been proposed as a framework to compare RDT platforms but reports of clinical application are lacking. This study compared potential antibiotic decisions based on results of two different RDTs for BSI using DOOR-MAT.
