Activity of ceftolozane/tazobactam, imipenem/relebactam and ceftazidime/avibactam against clinical Gram-negative isolates-SMART United States 2019-21.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ongoing national and international surveillance efforts are critical components of antimicrobial stewardship, resistance monitoring, and drug development programs. In this report, we summarize the results of ceftolozane/tazobactam, imipenem/relebactam, ceftazidime/avibactam and comparator agent testing against 10 509 Enterobacterales and 2524 Pseudomonas aeruginosa collected by USA clinical laboratories in 2019-21 as part of the SMART global surveillance programme.

Methods

MICs were determined by CLSI broth microdilution and interpreted using 2023 CLSI M100 breakpoints.

Results

Most Enterobacterales were ceftazidime/avibactam susceptible (>99%), meropenem susceptible (99%) and ceftolozane/tazobactam susceptible (94%). Non-Morganellaceae Enterobactera
