Evaluation of clinicians’ knowledge and use of minimum inhibitory concentration values
Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2021 Routinely reporting minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values to clinicians remains controversial. We surveyed clinicians to assess their knowledge and usage of MIC in clinical scenarios. The majority of respondents used MIC values to select antibiotic therapy, with a tendency to use those antibiotics with lower MICs, regardless of clinical ...

Journal of Current Research in Scientific Medicine, 2023 Background: The breakpoint to minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) quotient (BMQ) of an antimicrobial agent is the ratio of susceptible breakpoint divided by MIC of the test isolate. The higher the BMQ, the better is the therapeutic efficacy.
