BMS284756 (formerly T-3811, a des-fluoroquinolone) potency and spectrum tested against over 10,000 bacterial bloodstream infection isolates from the SENTRY antimicrobial surveillance programme (2000).

In Vitro Evaluation of Delafloxacin Activity when Tested Against Contemporary community-Acquired Bacterial Respiratory Tract Infection Isolates (2014–2016): Results from the Sentry Antimicrobial Surveillance Program

Clinical prevalence, antimicrobial susceptibility, and geographic resistance patterns of enterococci: results from the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program, 1997-1999.

As part of the SENTRY Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program, a total of 4998 strains of enterococci isolated from 1997 to 1999 were processed. The occurrence of enterococcal infections by species and site of infection was analyzed, as were the occurrence of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) and their resistance phenotypes and genotypes. Trends in antimicrobial susceptibility to a v...

Pathogen frequency and resistance patterns in Brazilian hospitals: summary of results from three years of the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program.

BACKGROUND Pathogen frequency and resistance patterns may vary significantly from country to country and also in different hospitals within a country. Thus, regional surveillance programs are essential to guide empirical therapy and infection control measures. METHODS Rank order of occurrence and antimicrobial susceptibility of pathogenic species causing bloodstream infections (BSI), lower re...

SENTRY antimicrobial surveillance program report: Latin American and Brazilian results for 1997 through 2001.

The alarming emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance among common bacteria threatens the effectiveness of therapy for many infections. Surveillance of antimicrobial resistance is essential to identify the major problems and guide adequate control measures. Several resistance surveillance programs have been implemented in North America and Europe in the last decade; however, very few pr...

Trends in antimicrobial resistance in bloodstream infection isolates at a large urban hospital in Malawi (1998–2016): a surveillance study

BACKGROUND Bacterial bloodstream infection is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in sub-Saharan Africa, yet few facilities are able to maintain long-term surveillance. The Malawi-Liverpool-Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Programme has done sentinel surveillance of bacteraemia since 1998. We report long-term trends in bloodstream infection and antimicrobial resistance from this surveilla...
