Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:This study investigated trends and factors associated with antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Acinetobacter spp. in Europe.
METHODS:Using data from EARS-Net, population-weighted multilevel logistic regression models with random intercepts for each participating country were performed to assess trends in Acinetobacter AMR. Countries were divided into two groups (Northern versus Southern-Eastern) using a convenient US$35000 cut-off of the 2016 gross domestic product per capita (GDPPC).
RESULTS:In most countries, there were no ascending or descending trends over time. The models showed a consistent higher prevalence of AMR to aminoglycosides, carbapenems and fluoroquinolones in countries with GDPPC journal_name journal_title authors doi subject pub_date pages eissn issn pii journal_volume pub_type
