Total of 1,066 randomized patients. ESBL, extended-spectrum β-lactamase; NA, not applicable. ESBL status was determined by phenotype based on CLSI confirmatory tests. Some patients had more than one pathogen isolated. Multiple isolates of the same species from the same patient were 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 were counted only once using the isolate with the highest MIC to the study drug received across culture source (intra-abdominal site or blood).
