Table HKSH. Antibiogram for common bacterial isolates, Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital, 2021
Key:
  1. Interpreted according to 2021 CLSI definition. Non-susceptible includes both intermediate & resistant.
  2. ESBL, extended-spectrum beta-lactamase.
  3. MRSA, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus; CA-MRSA, Community-associated Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
  4. Since the total number of Streptococcus pneumoniae isolated in 2021 was less than 10, no figures for Streptococcus pneumoniae were included.
  5. Ceftolozane/Tazobactam was not included for Pseudomonas aeruginosa in 2020; hence, no comparison of non-susceptibility rate between 2020 and 2021 was made.
  6. As the number of Haemophilus influenzae isolated in 2021 was small (n=14), analysis was based on the summation of Haemophilus influenzae isolated in 2020 and 2021 (n=37+15=51).
 indicate 10% or more increase in non-susceptibility rate compared to year 2020
 indicate 10% or more reduction in non-susceptibility rate compared to year 2020
