What is an antibiogram
An antibiogram is a
laboratory test used to
determine the
sensitivity pattern of a
given microorganism
to a range of
antibiotics.

Inappropriate
antimicrobial
selection also has
the potential to
increase the risk for
resistance
development.

Interpreting an antibiogram
The correct
interpretation of the
antibiogram will be of
interest to
Microbiologists and
laboratory technicians
alike. Standardized
methods are established
and can be found in the
WHO manuals.

Basic Interpretation of
Zone Sizes
Therefore, it is often
assumed that the
larger the diameter
of the zone of
inhibition, the more
potent the
antimicrobial

In relation to the
degree of diffusion,
can influence the
resulting zone of
inhibition, such that
the timing of both
factors, microbial
growth and
diffusion, interplay.

What is Susceptible
This category implies that an
infection due to this
bacterium may be
appropriately treated with
the dosage of antibiotic
recommended for that type
of infection and infecting
species, unless otherwise
contraindicated

39
Intermediate
This category implies that an
infection due to this
bacteria, may be treated
when possible with higher
than normal dosage of this
antibiotic, or when the drug
is physiologically
concentrated in certain body
sites, like Quinolones in
urine

Resistant
Resistant strain will
probably not respond to
any treatment, as they
are not inhibited by the
usually achievable
systemic concentrations
of the antibiotic when
normal dosage schedules
are used.

Future of Antibiograms
03-08-2016
The future of
antibiograms would
be the incorporation
of patient related
data to make
information more
reliable and for
predicting outbreaks

Antibiogram app
With the
Antibiograms app,
you simply select a
bacterium, select a
patient group, and you
are given the proportion
of susceptible organisms
for each antibiotic tested
in your local laboratory.
