ABSTRACT
We aimed to assess the accuracy of BD Phoenix for determining carbapenem susceptibility because we observed a decline in carbapenem susceptibility rate from the biannual cumulative data, after we transitioned to the BD Phoenix form Vitek 2 system. Between October 2021 and May 2022, we collected 82 non-duplicated Enterobacterales showing non-susceptible to at least one of the three carbapenems by BD Phoenix. We performed the broth microdilution (BMD) and disk diffusion (DD) according to the CLSI guideline. Compared to BMD, the categorical agreements for ertapenem (ERT), imipenem (IPM) and meropenem (MEPM) was 58.8%, 56.8% and 91.5% for BD Phoenix and it was 85.4%, 89.0%, and 97.6%, respectively, for DD (p value; 0.0001 for ERT and IPM, p value; 0.17 for MEPM). The major errors/minor errors for ERT, IPM, and MEPM were 14.0%/31.7%, 2.94%/40.7%, and 2.56%/6.10%, respectively for BD Phoenix, compared to 0%/14.6%, 0%/9.8%, and 0%/2.5%, for DD. While errors in the BD Phoenix showed tendency towards resistance, those in DD displayed no tendency towards either resistance or susceptibility. With DD, 21 out of the 27 isolates showing susceptible/intermediate/susceptible pattern (ERT/IPM/MEPM) and 13 out of the 16 isolates showing intermediate/susceptible/susceptible pattern (ERT/IPM/MEPM), were correctly categorized by DD. However, for 22 isolates showing resistant/susceptible/susceptible pattern (ERT/IPM/MEPM), only 13 isolates were correctly categorized by DD. In conclusion, to mitigate the risk of overcalling carbapenem non-susceptibility with BD Phoenix, it will be helpful to perform a complementary test using DD and to provide comments on the DD results to clinicians.
