2011, ChestCitation Excerpt :Bacterial identification and susceptibility testing were performed by standard methods, based on local guidelines. An organism was considered to be the definitive causative agent23 only if it could be isolated from blood or pleural fluid. Other microorganisms isolated from quantitative endotracheal aspirate were considered ‘probable’ pathogens.23
