COMBINATION OF STRUCTURAL VARIATIONS AND SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE CHANGES IN ONE STATISTICAL MODEL FOR IMPROVED ANTIMICROBIAL DRUG THERAPY SELECTION

摘要

The invention relates to a method of determining an antimicrobial drug resistance profile for a microorganism, wherein nucleic acid sequences of the microorganism are analyzed for structural variations of the genome comprising at least a change in the genome comprising more than one base, as well as for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), as well as a method of determining an infection of a patient with a microorganism potentially resistant to antimicrobial drug treatment and a method of selecting a treatment of a patient suffering from an infection with a potentially resistant microorganism, wherein the data of the antimicrobial drug resistance profile are applied.
