The VITEK REVEAL AST System is an automated system for quantitative and qualitative antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) of organisms direct from positive blood culture. The VITEK REVEAL AST System does not provide organism identification.

The VITEK REVEAL AST System is an automated system that uses an array of sensors to detect volatile organic compounds emitted by growing bacteria for the in vitro quantitative and qualitative determination of antimicrobial susceptibility. The VITEK REVEAL GN AST Assay is indicated for susceptibility testing direct from positive blood culture samples signaled as positive by a continuous monitoring blood culture system and confirmed to contain gram-negative bacilli by Gram stain. Organism identification is required for AST result interpretation and reporting.

This test is performed by laboratory health professionals in a clinical diagnostic setting. Results may be used as an aid to clinicians in determining appropriate antimicrobial therapy. Test results from the VITEK REVEAL AST System should be interpreted in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings. Standard laboratory protocols for processing positive blood cultures should be followed to ensure availability of isolates for supplemental testing. Sub-culturing is necessary to support further testing for: bacteria and antimicrobials not on the VITEK REVEAL GN AST Assay panel, inconclusive results, epidemiologic testing, recovery of organisms present in positive blood cultures samples, and susceptibility testing of bacteria in polymicrobial samples.

The VITEK REVEAL GN AST Assay tests the following antimicrobial agents with the specific target organisms identified below:

Amikacin: Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex, Citrobacter freundii (including Citrobacter freundii complex), Enterobacter cloacae complex, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella aerogenes, Klebsiella oxytoca, Klebsiella pneumoniae group, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia marcescens
