Table 2. Prevalence of ESBL-producing organisms by overall, intra-abdominal infection and urinary-tract infection, categorized by type of infection (community-acquired and nosocomial), from SMART study in Mexico between 2009 and 2015.

The prevalence of ESBL-producing organisms were calculated for the total of each organism in the overall intra-abdominal infection (IAI) and urinary-tract infection (UTI), as presented in Table 1;

a) Community-acquired (CA) was defined as an isolate obtained <48h after hospitalization;

b) Nosocomial (N) was defined as an isolate obtained >48h after hospitalization;

*For some isolates herein included the type of infection and the type of source were not specified.
