Background Accelerate Pheno® (AP) is a novel diagnostic system that provides rapid identification and antibiotic susceptibility results for most commonly isolated organisms within hours of blood culture (BC) positivity. There are little data on this technology’s real-world implementation with antimicrobial stewardship intervention and effect on optimal targeted therapy. Methods AP was implemented at UIHC in September 2018 and paired with antimicrobial stewardship team (AST) review. AST recommendations were provided in real time during weekday hours and through a retrospective review process for off-hours results. Microbiologic and clinical data were collected prospectively. Due to inconsistencies in instrument performance identified after the first month, two post-implementation periods (Group A = October 2018–January 2019; Group B = February 2019–mid-April 2019) were analyzed to assess quality improvement efforts during clinical roll-out. Results In the 6.5-month combined period, 690 unique BC samples were run on AP and reviewed by AST (417 in A; 273 in B). Performance of the technology improved, with 78.9% (329/417) of isolates in Grp A identified vs. 85.3% in Grp B (233/273). Percentage of runs with progression to antibiotic susceptibility improved from 76.1% to 92.3%. Over both time periods, AST intervened on 277 samples (Figure 1). Recommendations (bug-drug mismatch, de-escalation, dose optimization, and infectious disease consult) were accepted at a rate of 97.4%. Time from BC positivity to optimal therapy was 15.3 hours (Figure 2). Conclusion Implementation of AP with AST review resulted in rapid identification and antibiotic susceptibility results with early optimization of antimicrobial therapy. Highest impact was seen in the management of patients with resistant Gram-negative infections. Oversight of the implementation by a partnership of clinical microbiology and the antimicrobial stewardship team was critical in identifying real-time implementation issues and opportunities for quality improvement. Though real-world performance was slightly inferior to published trial data, the instrument’s exceedingly fast time to AS represents a significant advantage over other systems and enhances clinical care and patient safety particularly when paired with AST intervention.
