Antimicrobial Resistance Trends in Urine Escherichia coli Isolates From Adult and Adolescent Females in the United States From 2011 to 2019: Rising ESBL Strains and Impact on Patient Management

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Uncomplicated urinary tract infection (uUTI) is predominantly caused by Escherichia coli, which has increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) at the United States (US)-community level. As uUTI is often treated empirically, assessing AMR is challenging, and there are limited contemporary data characterizing period prevalence in the US. METHODS: This was a retrospective study of AMR using Becton,...
