Antimicrobial Susceptibility Profiles of Gram-Negative Bacteria Causing Infections Collected Across India during 2014–2016: Study for Monitoring Antimicrobial Resistance Trend Report

Abstract: Increasing rates of ESBL producers have been noted, which is alarming. Further, carbapenem resistance was also gradually increasing, which needs much attention. Overall, this study data show that carbapenems, amikacin and colistin continue to be the best agents available to treat drug-resistant infections. Thus continuous monitoring of susceptibility profile of the clinically important Gram-negative pathogens is of great importance to guide effective antimicrobial therapy.

“…The increasing use of third-generation β-lactams and β-lactam inhibitors was accompanied with increases in prevalence of the MDR phenotype among E. coli. The susceptibility profiles noted in invasive E. coli isolates of our study were similar to the previously (2014-2016) reported susceptibility to cefoxitin 53%, ceftazidime 33%, cefotaxime 26%, ceftriaxone 25%, cefepime 29%, piperacillin tazobactam 66%, imipenem and meropenem 89%, aztreonam 36%, ciprofloxacin 19%, levofloxavin 23%, and amikacin 91% [16]. Among these, about 64% of E. coli were found to be ESBL producers.…”

“…This study reported prevalence of ESBL increased from 22% in 2009 to 33% in 2014, which is a lot lower than our study. Increasing trends of AMR was observed among gram negative samples collected across seven hospitals in India over a four-year period, but the reported carbapenem resistance prevalence in Klebsiella 'spp' (39%) and E. coli (12%) were lower than our study 15 . Another observational study among intensive care unit (ICU) patients in a tertiary care hospital in Delhi showed 80% of Klebsiella 'spp' were resistant to beta-lactam group of antimicrobials, which is similar to our study 16 .…”

“…Similar observations have been made by others; Bhat et al and Shrestha et al 10,11 In this study, E. coli, Klebsiella spp, and P. aeruginosa are the most commonly isolated organism. The bacterial isolates were collected mainly from patients with urinary tract infections (30%), Pus and wound swab (44%) and bloodstream infections (12%) correlates with Veeraraghavan B et al 12 In this study, among 43% E. coli isolates, the sensitivity pattern towards, Cefepime Tazobactam was 90%, Cefepime -32%, Piperacillin Tazobactam -75%, Cefoperazone sulbactam -71%, Carbapenem-91%, and Amikacin-92%. Klebsiella Pneumoniae (24%) showed susceptibility to 42% on Cefepime Tazobactam, Cefepime-16%, Piperacillin Tazobactam -48%, Cefoperazone sulbactam -46%, Carbapenem-55%, and Amikacin 55%.…”
