3 Describe common factors causing the development of multidrug-resistant bacteria. Compare and contrast bacterial susceptibility of the following 3 new antibiotics used to treat multidrug-resistant gram-negative infections: AVYCAZ (ceftazidime and avibactam), VABOMERE (meropenem and vaborbactam), and ZERBAXA (ceftolozane and tazobactam).

4 Identify the antibiotic class of each of the components of the three medications presented for treating multidrug-resistant gram-negative infections. Compare and contrast the three medications in regards to administration, storage, and/or stability characteristics.

5 Multidrug-resistant (MDR)- nonsusceptible to at least 1 antimicrobial from 3 medication classes Extensively drug resistant (XDR)- nonsusceptible to at least 1 antimicrobial from 5 medication classes Walkty A, Adam H, Baxter M et al. In vitro activity of ceftolozane/tazobactam versus antimicrobial nonsusceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolates including MDR and XDR isolates obtained from across Canada as part of the CANWARD study, Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy
