Clinical laboratory testing and in vitro diagnostic test systems - Susceptibility testing of infectious agents and evaluation of performance of antimicrobial susceptibility test devices - Part 2: Evaluation of performance of antimicrobial susceptibility test devices (ISO 20776-2:2007)

This standard establishes acceptable performance criteria for antimicrobial susceptibility test (AST) devices that are used for determining minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) and/or interpretive category determinations (Susceptible, Intermediate, Resistant, SIR) of bacteria to antimicrobial agents in medical laboratories. This standard specifies requirements for AST devices (including diffusion test systems), and procedures for assessing performance of such devices. It defines how a performance evaluation of an AST device should be conducted. This standard has been developed to guide manufacturers in the conduct of performance evaluation studies.

Die vorliegende Norm legt annehmbare Leistungskriterien für Einrichtungen zur Prüfung der mikrobiellen
Empfindlichkeit (AST) fest, die zur Bestimmung der minimalen Hemmkonzentrationen (MHK) und/oder
interpretierender Kategoriebestimmungen (Sensibel, Intermediär, Resistent, SIR) von Bakterien auf
mikrobielle Wirkstoffe in medizinischen Laboren verwendet werden. Diese Norm legt Anforderungen an
Einrichtungen zur Prüfung der mikrobiellen Empfindlichkeit (AST) (einschließlich Diffusionstestsysteme) sowie
Verfahren zur Leistungsbewertung dieser Einrichtungen fest. Es wird definiert, wie eine Leistungsbewertung
einer Einrichtung zur Prüfung der mikrobiellen Empfindlichkeit (AST) durchgeführt werden sollte. Die
vorliegende Norm wurde mit dem Ziel erarbeitet, Hersteller bei der Durchführung von Leistungsbewertungsstudien
anzuleiten.

L'ISO 20776-2:2007 établit des critères de performances acceptables pour les dispositifs de mesure de sensibilité antimicrobienne (DMSA), qui sont utilisés pour déterminer les concentrations minimales inhibitrices (CMI) et/ou déterminer des catégories de bactéries sensibles, intermédiaires ou résistantes (SIR) dans des laboratoires médicaux. L'ISO 20776-2:2007 indique les exigences pour les dispositifs DMSA (incluant les systèmes de diffusion), ainsi que les modes opératoires permettant d'estimer la performance de ces dispositifs. Elle définit comment une évaluation des performances d'un dispositif DMSA doit être effectuée. L'ISO 20776-2:2007 a été développée afin de guider les fabricants dans la réalisation des études d'évaluation des performances.

ISO 20776-2:2007(E)
Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 20776-2 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee
CEN/TC 140, In vitro diagnostic medical devices, in collaboration with Technical Committee ISO/TC 212,
Clinical laboratory testing and in vitro diagnostic test systems, in accordance with the Agreement on technical
cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
ISO 20776 consists of the following parts, under the general title Clinical laboratory testing and in vitro
diagnostic test systems — Susceptibility testing of infectious agents and evaluation of performance of
antimicrobial susceptibility test devices:
⎯ Part 1: Reference method for testing the in vitro activity of antimicrobial agents against rapidly growing
aerobic bacteria involved in infectious diseases

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 20776-2:2007(E)

Clinical laboratory testing and in vitro diagnostic test
systems — Susceptibility testing of infectious agents and
evaluation of performance of antimicrobial susceptibility test
devices —
Part 2:
Evaluation of performance of antimicrobial susceptibility test
devices
1 Scope
This part of ISO 20776 establishes acceptable performance criteria for antimicrobial susceptibility test (AST)
devices that are used to determine minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) and/or interpretive category
determinations of susceptible, intermediate and resistant (SIR) strains of bacteria to antimicrobial agents in
medical laboratories. This part of ISO 20776 specifies requirements for AST devices (including diffusion test
systems) and procedures for assessing performance of such devices. It defines how a performance evaluation
of an AST device is to be conducted. This part of ISO 20776 has been developed to guide manufacturers in
the conduct of performance evaluation studies.

N is the total number of bacterial isolates tested
NOTE The overall EA is expressed as a percentage.
3.2
antimicrobial susceptibility test device
AST device
device including all specified components used to obtain test results that allow SIR categorization of bacteria
with specific antimicrobial agents
NOTE Specific components include inoculators, disposables and reagents, media, disks and readers. Non-specific
components, such as swabs, pipettes and tubes, are not part of the device.
3.3
breakpoint
BP
specific values of parameters, such as MICs, on the basis of which bacteria can be assigned to the clinical
categories “susceptible”, “intermediate” and “resistant”
NOTE For current interpretive breakpoints, reference can be made to the latest publications of organizations
employing this reference method (e.g. CLSI and EUCAST).
3.3.1
susceptible
S
bacterial strain inhibited in vitro by a concentration of an antimicrobial agent that is associated with a high
likelihood of therapeutic success
NOTE 1 Bacterial strains are categorized as susceptible by applying the appropriate breakpoints in a defined
phenotypic test system.
NOTE 2 This breakpoint can be altered due to changes in circumstances (e.g. changes in commonly used drug
dosages, emergence of new resistance mechanisms).

3.3.2
intermediate
I
bacterial strain inhibited in vitro by a concentration of an antimicrobial agent that is associated with uncertain
therapeutic effect
NOTE 1 Bacterial strains are categorized as intermediate by applying the appropriate breakpoints in a defined
phenotypic test system.
NOTE 2 This class of susceptibility implies that an infection due to the isolate can be appropriately treated in body sites
where the drugs are physiologically concentrated or when a high dosage of drug can be used.
NOTE 3 This class also indicates a “buffer zone”, to prevent small, uncontrolled, technical factors from causing major
discrepancies in interpretations.
NOTE 4 These breakpoints can be altered due to changes in circumstances (e.g. changes in commonly used drug
dosages, emergence of new resistance mechanisms).
3.3.3
resistant
R
bacterial strain inhibited in vitro by a concentration of an antimicrobial agent that is associated with a high
likelihood of therapeutic failure
NOTE 1 Bacterial strains are categorized as resistant by applying the appropriate breakpoints in a defined phenotypic
test system.
NOTE 2 This breakpoint can be altered due to changes in circumstances (e.g. changes in commonly used drug
dosages, emergence of new resistance mechanisms).
3.3.4
non-susceptible
NS
bacterial strain for which the test result exceeds the suscep
