Abstract
Background: Antimicrobial resistance research in uncomplicated urinary tract infection typically focuses on the main causative pathogen, Escherichia coli; however, little is known about the antimicrobial resistance burden of Klebsiella species, which can also cause uncomplicated urinary tract infections. This retrospective cohort study assessed the prevalence and geographic distribution of antimicrobial resistance among Klebsiella species and antimicrobial resistance trends for K. pneumoniae in the United States (2011-2019).
Methods: K. pneumoniae and K. oxytoca urine isolates (30-day, non-duplicate) among female outpatients (aged ≥ 12 years) with presumed uUTI at 304 centers in the United States were classified by resistance phenotype(s): not susceptible to nitrofurantoin, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, or fluoroquinolone, extended-spectrum β-lactamase-positive/not susceptible; and multidrug-resistant based on ≥ 2 and ≥ 3 resistance phenotypes. Antimicrobial resistance prevalence by census division and age, as well as antimicrobial resistance trends over time for Klebsiella species, were assessed using generalized estimating equations.
Results: 270,552 Klebsiella species isolates were evaluated (250,719 K. pneumoniae; 19,833 K. oxytoca). The most frequent resistance phenotypes in 2019 were nitrofurantoin not susceptible (Klebsiella species: 54.0%; K. pneumoniae: 57.3%; K. oxytoca: 15.1%) and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole not susceptible (Klebsiella species: 10.4%; K. pneumoniae: 10.6%; K. oxytoca: 8.6%). Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-positive/not susceptible prevalence was 5.4%, 5.3%, and 6.8%, respectively. K. pneumoniae resistance phenotype prevalence varied (p < 0.0001) geographically and by age, and increased over time (except for the nitrofurantoin not susceptible phenotype, which was stable and > 50% throughout).
Conclusions: There is a high antimicrobial resistance prevalence and increasing antimicrobial resistance trends among K. pneumoniae isolates from female outpatients in the United States with presumed uncomplicated urinary tract infection. Awareness of K. pneumoniae antimicrobial resistance helps to optimize empiric uncomplicated urinary tract infection treatment.
期刊介绍:
Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control is a global forum for all those working on the prevention, diagnostic and treatment of health-care associated infections and antimicrobial resistance development in all health-care settings. The journal covers a broad spectrum of preeminent practices and best available data to the top interventional and translational research, and innovative developments in the field of infection control.
