ABSTRACT
We evaluated the activities of aztreonam/avibactam and recently approved ß-lactamase inhibitor combinations (BLICs) to compare the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from intensive care unit (ICU) and non-ICU patients. Clinical isolates (1/patient) were consecutively collected from 72 United States medical centres in 2020-2022 and susceptibility tested by broth microdilution. The results for 5421 isolates from ICU patients were analysed and compared to those for 20,649 isolates from non-ICU patients. Isolates from ventilator-associated pneumonia patients were analysed separately. Aztreonam/avibactam inhibited 100.0%/>99.9% Enterobacterales and 100.0%/98.3% of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) from ICU/non-ICU patients at ≤8 mg/L, respectively. The CRE susceptibility rates were 88.5%/82.9% for ceftazidime/avibactam, 82.1%/81.2% for meropenem/vaborbactam, and 78.2%/72.6% for imipenem/relebactam among ICU/non-ICU isolates. Among the P. aeruginosa isolates from ICU/non-ICU patients, the susceptibility rates were 96.3%/97.6% for ceftazidime/avibactam, 97.2/98.4% for ceftolozane/tazobactam, 97.1%/98.0% for imipenem/relebactam, 77.8%/84.6% for piperacillin/tazobactam, and 76.9%/85.8% for meropenem; aztreonam/avibactam inhibited 78.0%/81.9% of P. aeruginosa at ≤8 mg/L. In summary, lower susceptibility rates were observed among ICU than non-ICU isolates. Aztreonam/avibactam exhibited potent in vitro activity and broad-spectrum activity against Enterobacterales from ICU and non-ICU patients, including CRE and isolates non-susceptible to newer BLICs. Against P. aeruginosa, aztreonam/avibactam showed a spectrum of activity comparable to that of piperacillin/tazobactam, meropenem, and ceftazidime.
