CLSI participates in the development of international standards as the Secretariat of ISO Technical Committee (TC) 212, clinical laboratory testing and in vitro diagnostic test systems. This responsibility was delegated to CLSI by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), an ISO member body. CLSI also serves as the administrator for the ...
The EUCAST guidelines are freely available to all of their users. Like the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute , EUCAST offers guidelines to interpret raw minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs), the lowest concentration of a chemical, usually a drug, which prevents visible growth of bacterium.
The IFCC's aims are to set global standards, support and educate its members, and provide conferences and other gatherings for sharing knowledge among the global laboratory medicine community. [ 1 ] IFCC members fall into three groups: national societies of clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, corporations , and affiliate international ...
Breakpoints for the same organism and antibiotic may differ based on the site of infection: [29] for example, the CLSI generally defines Streptococcus pneumoniae as sensitive to intravenous penicillin if MICs are ≤0.06 μg/ml, intermediate if MICs are 0.12 to 1 μg/ml, and resistant if MICs are ≥2 μg/ml, but for cases of meningitis, the ...
The provisions for the transition from IVDD to IVDR were changed by the EU commission with Regulation (EU) 2022/112 and Regulation (EU) 2023/607. Due to certain issues and delays, some changes to the transition timelines were implemented for both MDR and IVDR. Notably, the "sell-off" provision of legacy devices, covered by the IVDD, was removed ...
The first version of the standard was published in 2003, and it was revised in 2007 to align more closely to ISO/IEC 17025. [1] A third edition of the standard was published in 2012, which revised the layout again and added a section on laboratory information management.
These grades are assigned based on agreed upon values called breakpoints. Breakpoints are published by standards development organizations such as the U.S. Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI), the British Society for Antimicrobial Chemotherapy (BSAC) and the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST).
