Abstract

Abstract: Background: In the past 10 years, there has been a substantial increase in antimicrobial resistance among uropathogens in community-acquired uncomplicated urinary tract infections (uUTIs), including extended spectrum β-lactamase producing (ESBL+) Enterobacterales and multidrug resistance. This study examined urine isolates from female outpatients in the United States (US) for co-resistance among Escherichia coli ( E. coli ). Methods: This was a retrospective, cross-sectional study of 30-day non-duplicate E. coli urine isolates (first isolates collected within a 30-day period) from female outpatients (≥ 12 years of age) at 304 US facilities. Included patients had ≥ 3 months of data from 2011 to 2019 (Becton, Dickinson and Company [BD] Insights Research Database). Urine-isolated E. coli were defined as ESBL+ by 1) commercial panel or 2) not susceptible (NS; intermediate/resistant) to ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, ceftazidime, or cefepime), or NS to any of: fluoroquinolones (FQs), trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (SXT), or nitrofurantoin (NFT). Microbiological co-resistance phenotypes were characterized in isolates NS to ≥ 2 of the 4 resistance phenotypes assessed. Results: In total, 856, 918 unique isolates were evaluated. Co-resistance data are shown in the Table. Of ESBL+ isolates (96, 306), 72.4% were co-resistant to FQ, 56.7% to SXT, and 11.9% to NFT; 6.8% had all 4 phenotypes. For FQ NS isolates (319, 354), 21.8% were also ESBL+, 51.6% were co-resistant to SXT, 8.0% were co-resistant to NFT, and 2.0% had all 4 phenotypes. Among SXT NS isolates (384, 304), 14.2% were also ESBL+, 42.9% were co-resistant to FQ, 6.8% were co-resistant to NFT, and 1.7% had all 4 phenotypes. Finally, for NFT NS isolates (56, 954), 20.1% were ESBL+, 44.7% were co-resistant to FQ, 46.0% were co-resistant to SXT, and 11.5% had all 4 phenotypes. Table. Co-resistance phenotype combinations among urine-isolated Escherichia coli (2011–2019) In total, 856, 918 non-duplicate (30-day) Escherichia coli isolates were evaluated. Note: Some isolates had overlapping susceptibilities/antimicrobial resistance types, hence individual phenotype totals do not reflect total number of isolates evaluated. Abbreviations: ESBL+, extended spectrum β-lactamase-producing (by commercial panel or not susceptible to ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, ceftazidime or cefepime); FQ, fluoroquinolone; NFT, nitrofurantoin; NS, not susceptible; SXT, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole. Conclusion: Among urine-isolated E. coli, there was a high prevalence of co-resistance, particularly for ESBL+ isolates where co-resistance to FQ was > 70%. The availability of effective oral treatments for uUTI is limited by uropathogen antibiotic resistance. These data may help inform appropriate empiric prescribing practices to optimize the treatment of uUTI, mitigate multiple drug exposure for a uUTI event, and potentially influence long-term resistance patterns among E. coli .
