Question 1 of 5
Which of the following can be determined using culture and sensitivity tests?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Microbial susceptibility to an anti-infective. Culture and sensitivity tests help identify the specific microorganism causing an infection and determine which antibiotics it is susceptible to. This information guides healthcare providers in choosing the most effective treatment, ensuring targeted therapy.
A, C, and D are incorrect because culture and sensitivity tests do not directly determine the decision to administer a bactericidal or bacteriostatic drug, the duration of antibacterial therapy, or whether to administer empiric therapy. These decisions are based on clinical judgment, patient factors, and guidelines rather than test results.
