A patient could have more than one pathogen. Multiple isolates of the same species from the same patient are counted only once using the isolate with the highest MIC to the study drug received. For bacteremic patients, multiple isolates of the same species from the same patient are counted only once using the isolate with the highest MIC to the study drug received across the culture source (urine or blood).
Genetic identification of β-lactamases was provided as previously described (JMI Laboratories, Inc., North Liberty, IA) (9).
The total number of patients in the treatment group was 333.
%S, percent susceptible.
NA, not applicable. MIC50 and MIC90 values were not calculated for pathogens with <10 patients.
