a

Criteria as published by CLSI (40) and EUCAST (41), the latter for comparison only. S, sensitive; I, intermediate; R, resistant.

b

Breakpoints from FDA package insert (42).

c

Dilution range did not extend far enough to determine whether the data represented intermediate or resistant status, so only the susceptible percentage is displayed.

d

Intermediate data interpreted as susceptible-dose dependent.
