Epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance profile of invasive non-typhoidal from the Philippines Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program, 2014-2018.

Objective: The epidemiology of invasive non-typhoidal (iNTS) in the Philippines is not well elaborated. The present study describes the serotype distribution and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of iNTS in the Philippines from 2014 to 2018.

Methods: Invasive NTS isolates were collected through the Department of Health's Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program (ARSP).

Serotype distribution and antimicrobial resistance of in the Philippines, 2012-2018.

Objective: Data are scarce on the prevailing serotypes in the Philippines, including the relative antimicrobial resistance (AMR) of these bacteria. This study is designed to fill that gap by describing the serotype distribution and AMR of in the Philippines from 2012 to 2018.

Methods: isolates from clinical specimens were collected through the Philippine Department of Health Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program from 1 January 2012 to 31 December 2018.
