Table HKSH. Antibiogram for common bacterial isolates, Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital, 2019
Key:
- Interpreted according to 2015 CLSI definition. Non-susceptible include both intermediate & resistant.
- ESBL, extended spectrum beta-lactamase.
- MRSA, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus; CA-MRSA, Community associated Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
- Unless otherwise stated, the resistance figure is based on analysis of more than 10 isolates. When the number of isolates is ≤10, the actual number is indicated in parenthesis.
- For Streptococcus pneumoniae, Penicillin (parenteral) MIC ≤0.06 µg/mL (50.0%), MIC 0.09-1 µg/mL (43.0%), MIC 1.5-2 µg/mL (7.0%). % Penicllin (parenteral) sensitive: non-meningitis breakpoint at MIC ≤2 µg/mL = 100%
- indicate 10% or more increase in non-susceptibility rate compared to year 2018
- indicate 10% or more reduction in non-susceptibility rate compared to year 2018
