N: number of isolates tested; % Res: percentage of microbiologically resistant isolates [either interpreted as non‐wild type by ECOFFs or clinically non‐susceptible by combining resistant and intermediate categories]; –: no data reported; NA: not applicable – if fewer than 10 isolates were tested, the percentage of resistance was not calculated; MS: Member State.

a

Provided measured values. Data interpreted by ECDC.

b

Ciprofloxacin has in several countries been replaced by pefloxacin for screening of fluoroquinolone resistance with disc diffusion, as recommended by EUCAST.

c

Combined data on the class of sulfonamides and the substance sulfamethoxazole within this group.
