Scope note: Método de medida de la actividad bactericida del suero de un paciente como resultado de una terapia antimicrobiana. Se usa para la monitorización de la terapia en la ENDOCARDITIS BACTERIANA, OSTEOMIELITIS y otras infecciones bacterianas graves. Del modo en que se realiza habitualmente, la prueba es una variante de la prueba de dilución en caldo. Esta prueba debe distinguirse de la prueba de la ACTIVIDAD BACTERICIDA DE LA SANGRE que se produce de forma natural.

Scope note: Method of measuring the bactericidal activity contained in a patient's serum as a result of antimicrobial therapy. It is used to monitor the therapy in BACTERIAL ENDOCARDITIS; OSTEOMYELITIS and other serious bacterial infections. As commonly performed, the test is a variation of the broth dilution test. This test needs to be distinguished from testing of the naturally occurring BLOOD BACTERICIDAL ACTIVITY.
Annotation: do not confuse with BLOOD BACTERICIDAL ACTIVITY (natural bactericidal property of blood) or SERUM BACTERICIDAL ANTIBODY ASSAY (measurement of IMMUNOGLOBULINS in blood that initiate lysis of bacteria)
