With automated analysers, bacterial identification and susceptibility testing can be performed in 4-5 hours instead of 12-18 hours with conventional methods. A controlled trial was carried out in the surgical ward of a university hospital to evaluate the clinical repercussions of these rapid methods. The automated analyser reduced delays in the laboratory by about 25%, and optimizing information transfer from laboratory to ward brought the reduction up to 50%. It was found that earlier results of susceptibility testing modified prescriptions and this may be expected to result in a more rational use of antibiotics.
