Gentamicin MIC distribution for S. epidermidis from 506 observations. The break-point for susceptible staphylococci for systemic administration of gentamicin is ≤ 2 mg/L. A potential break-point for local gentamicin delivery, based on the data about the elution from ALBC and in vitro data (see text), could be > 32 mg/L (source of the figure: https://mic.eucast.org, data August 6th, 2022).
