Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: This study investigated the trend in antimicrobial resistance among group B Streptococcus (GBS) from a national surveillance programme in Taiwan and delineated characteristics of and factors associated with levofloxacin-resistant isolates. METHODS: Clinical isolates of all sample types and patient groups were collected from multiple hospitals biennially between 2002 and 2012. Susceptibilities to...
