Penicillin [Susceptibility] for meningitis by MIC.Parenteral
Active
Term Description
Susceptibility of an isolate to parenteral penicillin in the context of a patient with meningitis, i.e., the "meningitis breakpoint". Various agencies, including the FDA and CLSI in the U.S. and EUCAST in Europe, publish guidelines for determining susceptibility of different organisms to different antimicrobials. In most cases, susceptibility does not vary by type of infection, but for a few specific types of infection, including meningitis, pneumonia and urinary tract infection, certain antimicrobials have different susceptibility thresholds.
Part Descriptions
LP14319-5 Penicillin
Penicillin (sometimes abbreviated PCN) refers to a group of Beta-lactam antibiotics used in the treatment of bacterial infections caused by susceptible, usually Gram-positive, organisms. The name "O.E. penicillin" can also refer to a specific member of the penicillin group. All penicillins possess the basic Penam Skeleton, formula R-C9 H11 N2 O4 S, where R is a variable side chain.

LP234793-0 Isolate.meningitis
Various agencies, including the FDA and CLSI in the U.S. and EUCAST in Europe, publish guidelines for determining susceptibility of different organisms to different antimicrobials. In most cases, susceptibility does not vary by infection site, but for a few specific types of infection, including meningitis, pneumonia and urinary tract infection, certain antimicrobials have different susceptibility thresholds, which are called "breakpoints". For terms in LOINC that represent specific breakpoints, the LOINC System will indicate the type of infection that the breakpoint is based on, for example, Isolate.meningitis, Isolate.pneumonia, and Isolate.UTI.
