Popis: Antimicrobial resistance among microorganisms has been on the rise worldwide including Lebanon. Several surveillance programs have been initiated to monitor the patterns of resistance due to the deleterious consequences on patients management. Thus, knowledge about the local antimicrobial resistance patterns is essential for epidemiologic aspects as well as clinical practice. In this context, the current status and changing trends of antimicrobial resistance in Lebanon are addressed covering the most relevant bacterial, mycobacterial and fungal pathogens.
