Abrupt changes in antibiotic resistance.

The Journal of hospital infection - 1 Jun 1991

McGowan J E

Abstract excerpt

Sudden increases in prevalence of antimicrobial resistance among bacteria are seen in both hospital-acquired and community-acquired infections. Examples include precipitate change in amikacin susceptibility in a hospital after years of low resistance, the abrupt increase in prevalence of beta-lactamase-producing strains among gonococci isolated in one community, and rapid increase in resistance to ciprofloxacin...
