Academic Perspective in Expert rules Emerging Issues of Resistance in Gram-ve Bacteria for Gram-negatives Trevor Winstanley Sheffield Teaching Hospitals Presented on behalf of David Livermore University of East Anglia & Health Protection Agency
Inherent resistance we can agree on, Enterobacteriaceae All except E. coli & P. mirabilis - ampicillin Klebsiella - ticarcillin AmpC-inducible species - ampicillin, co-amoxiclav, 1-gen cephs Serratia, Proteeae - colistin and nitrofurantoin Proteeae - tetracyclines & tigecycline
Inherent resistance we mostly agree on - non-fermenters Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter - ampicillin, cephs except ceftazidime, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, ertapenem S. maltophilia - all -lactams except ticar-clav, aminoglycosides, trimethoprim alone Burkholderia - aminoglycosides & colistin Elizabethkingella - -lactams except pip-tazo
Exceptional resistance Enterobacteriaceae meropenem / imipenem P. aeruginosa, Acinetobacter colistin Bacteroides metronidazole & carbapenems I d add, in UK context E. coli tigecycline P. mirabilis ESBL Bacteroides co-amoxiclav / pip-tazo
AmpC-inducible species --- not too contentious If S to cefotaxime, ceftriaxone or ceftazidime THEN use as monotherapy should be discouraged owing to the risk of selecting resistance, or suppress these results risk is absent or diminished for cefepime and cefpirome...may still fail with aminoglycoside added BUT... combination with quinolone has been found protective
EUCAST rules. Quinolones & G-ves Enterobacteriaceae R to ciprofloxacin Report R to all fluoroquinolones Salmonella with cipro MIC >0.06 mg/l Report R to all fluoroquinolones Leclercq et al., CMI 2011 epub 21 Oct
Reporting for ESBL producers EUCAST Cephalosporin breakpoints for Enterobacteriaceae will detect clinically-important resistance mechanisms (including ESBLs) Some strains that produce -lactamases are susceptible or intermediate to third- or fourth- generation cephalosporins with these breakpoints, and should be reported as found. Leclercq et al., CMI 2011 epub 21 Oct http://www.eucast.org
Don t seek ESBLs just have a low breakpoint Better ceph outcomes vs. ESBL producers if MICs <1-2 mg/l -Lactamase vulnerability does not guarantee resistance Pharmacodynamic modelling suggests activity Animal experiments suggest that ceph efficacy reflects MIC Not presence of a ESBL Omitting ESBL tests saves time and money Andes, Craig. CMI 2005; 11 Suppl 6: 10 Maglio et al. AAC 2004; 48: 1941

Why we think EUCAST (& CLSI) ESBL advice is wrong Pharmacokinetics more variable than we admit Outcomes are inconsistent vs. low-mic ESBL & carbapenemase producers Inoculum effect (TW) Susceptibility tests less precise than we wish Mechanism detection will become faster than susceptibility testing Livermore et al.

In short. It s not so clear that cephalosporin & carbapenem MICs of 1-4 mg/l are associated with satisfactory outcomes. Next key point The lab doesn t determine precise MICs anyway

Next (& say it in whispers ) For the seriously-ill patient, fast microbiology is more valuable than precise microbiology And, mostly, microbiology moves at the pace it did in Fleming s time: 48h from specimen to susceptibility result Far more potential to accelerate seeking resistance genes than phenotypes
