- Abstract
A total of 35,360 Enterobacterales isolates were consecutively collected from 75 US medical centers in 2018-2022. Among these isolates, 2612 (7.4%) were categorized as multidrug-resistant (MDR). Isolates were susceptibility tested by reference broth microdilution methods. Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) were screened for carbapenemase (CPE) genes by whole genome sequencing. The highest MDR rates was observed among Klebsiella pneumoniae (12.2%), followed by Raoultella spp. (10.9%) and Providencia stuartii (9.8%). Ceftazidime-avibactam and meropenem-vaborbactam were very active and showed identical susceptibility rates against MDR isolates (97.9%). Imipenem-relebactam (93.5% susceptible [S]) exhibited slightly lower susceptibility rates due to its limited activity against Morganellaceae family. The most active β-lactamase inhibitor combination (BLI) against CRE isolates (n = 310) was ceftazidime-avibactam (84.2%S), followed by meropenem-vaborbactam (81.9%S) and imipenem-relebactam (74.8%S). All 3 BLIs were very active against KPC producers and none were active against MBL producers. Ceftazidime-avibactam exhibited greater activity against OXA-48-type producers than meropenem-vaborbactam and imipenem-vaborbactam., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2023 The Author(s).
