ABSTRACT: Objectives: To report on the activity of ceftolozane-tazobactam and comparators against Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates collected from hospitalized patients with pneumonia in US intensive care units (ICUs) between 2015 and 2018. Activity against all P. aeruginosa and common resistant phenotypes are described to better inform decision-making and support antimicrobial stewardship efforts.Methods: In total, 781 P. aeruginosa isolates were collected from 28 US hospitals. These isolates were tested for susceptibility to ceftolozane-tazobactam and comparators by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) broth microdilution methodology using CLSI (2020) breakpoints. Phenotypes analysed included piperacillin-tazobactam-non-susceptible (NS), cefepime-NS, ceftazidime-NS, meropenem-NS and difficult-to-treat resistance (DTR).Results: Ceftolozane-tazobactam was the most potent agent tested (minimum inhibitory concentration to inhibit 50% and 90% of isolates of 0.5 and 2 mg/L, respectively, inhibiting 97.2% at the susceptible breakpoint of ≤4 mg/L). Traditional first-line antipseudomonal β-lactam antibiotics (piperacillin-tazobactam, cefepime and ceftazidime) demonstrated |
