Impact of Real-time MIC (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration) Reporting (<6 Hours) on β-lactam Prescription in Cases of Gram-negative Bacilli Bacteremia in ICU Patients in Real-life Settings

The SPECIFIC REVEAL™ system uses biosensors capable of detecting volatile substances released by microorganisms during their growth. The detection of these volatile compounds by ultra-high-performance biosensors enables very early detection of bacterial growth compared with standard technologies based on visual systems (e.g. diffusion antibiogram or MICs determined by microdilution in liquid media) or optical density measurement systems (e.g. Vitek2)
