Antimicrobial resistance software questions, answered directly

Seven columns: a patient identifier, the collection date, the specimen source, the unit or location, the organism, the antibiotic and the S, I or R result. That is the same export you already pull for the annual report. MIC values are welcome and are used where present, but they are not required.

No. The Antibiogram Builder on this site parses your CSV with the browser file API and computes every number locally in JavaScript. There is no upload, and no network request carries your rows. You can confirm it by opening the network tab before you pick the file.

No. Antimicrobe is a data analysis and surveillance tool. It is not FDA cleared, it does not diagnose, and it does not prescribe. It computes susceptibility summaries from data you provide, for review by qualified professionals against your own guidelines.

Both. If your export already carries an S, I or R interpretation, we use it as your laboratory reported it. Where MIC values are present, the Stewardship plan and above can reinterpret them against a chosen CLSI or EUCAST version, which is how you re-run last year under this year's breakpoints.

As a switch, not a hidden default. By default intermediate is counted separately and left out of the %S denominator, which is the common cumulative reporting choice. One toggle counts intermediate as resistant instead, and the rule receipt under the matrix always states which one produced the numbers on screen.

It keeps the first isolate per patient, per organism, per analysis period, so one heavily cultured patient cannot skew the report. It is on by default and it is a toggle. The builder shows the isolate count before and after de-duplication, so you can see exactly what the rule removed.

Because a percentage on eleven isolates is noise that reads like a fact. CLSI M39 guidance is not to report an organism and drug combination with fewer than 30 isolates in a cumulative antibiogram. The threshold is a setting, and suppressed cells stay visible as a marked tile rather than disappearing.

That is the point of the product. Source, unit, period and organism group are filters, so an ICU respiratory antibiogram and an outpatient urine antibiogram are two clicks apart rather than two projects apart. Suppression applies to each cut independently, because smaller cuts have smaller cells.

As current as your last export. If you drop in a file weekly, the trailing twelve months move weekly. Nothing about the method requires waiting for the calendar year to close, though small periods will suppress more cells.

Yes. Any view exports to CSV and prints to a clean page, including the rule receipt that states the de-duplication, breakpoint and suppression settings behind the numbers. The receipt is what makes the output defensible in a pharmacy and therapeutics meeting.

CSV first. Scheduled ingest of an export your LIS already produces is part of the Network plan, and an HL7 or FHIR feed is an Enterprise conversation. We deliberately do not require an interface project before you see your first number.

You do not need to send us a direct patient identifier. A pseudonymous per-patient key is enough for the first isolate rule, and it can be a hash your side controls. For an account with data stored on our side, a business associate agreement is available under the Enterprise plan. We hold no certification and we do not claim one.

The Network plan compares up to twelve facilities on the same breakpoint set, which is the request that usually arrives from a regional system or a public health network. Below that, the Stewardship plan covers up to three facilities without cross-facility comparison.

It is for stewardship pharmacists, clinical microbiology leads, infection preventionists and AMR researchers who own the resistance picture. It is not a prescribing tool, not an alerting platform sitting on the electronic health record, and not a replacement for your microbiologist.

From $249 a month for a single facility to $2,400 a month for a twelve-facility network, with Enterprise priced on the conversation. Every limit is published on the pricing page. There is no free plan, because the builder on this page is the free version.

You get a 6-digit code by email to confirm the address, and that is the whole sign-up. We then email you the next steps for getting your own susceptibility export in. Nothing is charged, and no card is asked for.
