412In vitro Activity of Key Antimicrobial Agents Against Bacterial Isolates From Intra-abdominal (IAI) and Skin and Wound (SW) Infections: Europe 2004-2013
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background. IAI and SW infections present major challenges for hospitalized patients. Monitoring the resistance profiles expressed by the causative organisms is important. Therefore, data from the Tigecycline European Surveillance Trial (TEST) program were analyzed for the resistance patterns observed throughout Europe. Methods. Isolates were collected and tested locally by broth microdilution according to appropriate CLSI guidelines. Results of this study were based on isolates tested from 26 European countries from 2004 – 2013. Results. See table.
