2 Drug resistance follows the drug like a faithful shadow. - Paul Erhlich

3 It is not difficult to make microbes resistant to penicillin in the laboratory by exposing them to concentrations not sufficient to kill them, and the same thing has occasionally happened in the body there is the danger that the ignorant man may easily under-dose himself and by exposing his microbes to non-lethal quantities of the drug make them resistant. -Alexander Fleming, Nobel prize lecture, 1945

8 3rd Gen cephalosporins Ceftriaxone breakpoints have been lowered by CLSI Even if it says susceptible, failures are high Pyelonephritis from Thailand: Both clinical (65% and 93%) and microbiological (67.5% and 100%) responses at 72 hours after ceftriaxone treatment were poorer in the ESBL-producing group than in the ESBL-nonproducing group (p < )

9 Cefepime Cefepime not a great choice for ESBL Patients receiving cefepime for an ESBL infection were 9.7 (95% CI: ) and 28.5 (95% CI: ) times as likely to have an unsuccessful clinical and microbiological response compared with those with a non-esbl infection in one study

10 Mortality and Inadequate Therapy in Enterobacter In a study of 129 patients with Enterobacter bacteremia: 63% (7/11) patients who received inadequate therapy died, compared with 17% (9/54) patients who received adequate monotherapy and 16% (10/64) patients who received adequate combination therapy. Administration of a third-generation cephalosporin to patients who developed Enterobacter bacteremia within the past 14 days was significantly more likely to cause emergence of a multiresistant Enterobacter spp. (p<0.001) than was administration of other classes of antibiotics. When Enterobacter organisms are isolated from blood, it may be prudent to avoid third-generation cephalosporin therapy regardless of in vitro susceptibility. Chow JW et al. Ann Internal Med 1991;115:

11 Treatment Outcome for ESBL-Producers Initial appropriate therapy should be administered empirically if there is any suspicion that an infection is due to an ESBL-producing strain. Treatment No active antibiotics Beta-Lactams Quinolones Imipenem % Mortality Paterson DL. IDSA 1998.
