*Strain belonging to European clones I–III (+) or not belonging to these clones (−). All isolates have been identified to species by one or more genotypic methods [1], [33], [34].

Outbreak-associated (+) strain (i.e., common AFLP profile in >2 patients and with same time-space-origin) or (−) sporadic strain.

Multidrug-resistant (+) strain (i.e., resistant to more than two of the following drug classes or combinations: cephalosporins, carbapenems, ampicillin-sulbactam, quinolones and aminoglycosides) or (−) susceptible strain.
