"Five-year resistance trends in pathogens causing healthcare-associated" by Abbas Al Mutair, Saad Alhumaid et al.


Abstract
Objectives: Awareness of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) patterns in a given healthcare setting is important to inform the selection of appropriate antimicrobial therapy to reduce the further rise and spread of AMR as well as the rate of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and multidrug-resistant (MDR) organisms. We aimed to describe resistance patterns to several antimicrobial agents in pathogens causing HAIs isolated from patients using data gathered at three private tertiary-care hospitals in Saudi Arabia. Methods: Data on trends in AMR among bacteria causing HAIs and MDR events in children and adults at three private hospitals were collected retrospectively (2015–2019) using surveillance data. Results: Over the 5-year period, 29 393 pathogens caused 17 539 HAIs in 15 259 patients. Approximately 57.3% of patients were female and the mean age was 38.4 ± 16.8 years (81.4% adults, 18.6% children). Gram-negative pathogens were four times more likely to cause HAIs ....
