Epidemiology of penicillin-non-susceptible pneumococci in Iceland, 1995-2010.

The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy - 1 Apr 2014

Hjálmarsdóttir M Á, Kristinsson K G

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The first penicillin-non-susceptible pneumococci (PNSP) were identified in Iceland in 1988. A rapid increase followed, associated with expansion of a single multiresistant clone, Spain(6B)-2, peaking at 19.8% in 1993. After interventions led to reduced antimicrobial use in children, the prevalence of PNSP decreased until 1995. The aim of this study was to follow the evolution of PNSP from 1995 to...
