Italian term

multisensibile

Italian to English Medical Medical: Cardiology Medical report infection description
Here is the sentence.

Alle emocolture, eseguite in corso di puntata febbrile (38.7°C) è stato isolato Streptococcus Sanguis multisensibile.

Can someone tell me what the meaning of 'multisensibile' is?

and also ... "multi-drug sensitive" -- this is how I translate it, although it seems that both options are equally acceptable (checking online)
Cedric Randolph (asker) Jun 22, 2019:
Thanks for the confirmation Hi Gilberto, I was just closing in on this meaning, though it has been a slog as there are hardly any references to 'multi'-drug susceptibility while there are many for drug-susceptible infections. Thanks again.

multi-drug susceptible


It is the opposite of multi-drug resistance. These bacteria are sensitive to many different antibiotics.


...which exhibits high efficacy against many multi-drug susceptible and resistant Gram-positive pathogens.

agree Joseph Tein : Ciao Gilberto. I think also "multi-drug sensitive" would work (just to give Cedric another option).
