Incidence and epidemiology of levofloxacin resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae: experience from a tertiary referral hospital in England.

The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy - 1 Mar 2010

Orr David, Wilkinson Paul, Moyce Laura, Martin Siobhan, George Robert, Pichon Bruno

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the incidence of levofloxacin resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates cultured by Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (LTHTR), and detect cases of in vivo resistance development. METHODS: During the study period (September 2004-February 2007), isolates of S. pneumoniae cultured by the LTHTR microbiology laboratory were examined by Etest to determine MICs of...
