Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate trends in antibiotic susceptibility among urinary isolates in European emergency departments from 2010 to 2016, focusing on fluoroquinolones and third-generation cephalosporins (3GCs).
- It analyzed data from 88,242 urine cultures using time-series analysis and multivariate logistic models, revealing an increase in susceptibility to fluoroquinolones and a decrease in susceptibility to 3GCs during the study period.
- The findings also indicated that while 11% of isolates from 2016 had a high probability of susceptibility to fluoroquinolones, 35% showed a high probability for 3GCs, highlighting the potential for predictive models to assist in the empirical treatment
