Susceptibility trends including emergence of linezolid resistance among coagulase-negative staphylococci and meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus from invasive infections

Highlights • Homogeneous and heterogeneous glycopeptide resistance among invasive MRSA is uncommon. • Co-resistances among clindamycin-resistant MRSA lead to therapeutic issues. • Emergence of Staphylococcus lugdunensis from joint and bone infections should be monitored. • Linezolid resistance arise...

Description
Summary:Highlights • Homogeneous and heterogeneous glycopeptide resistance among invasive MRSA is uncommon. • Co-resistances among clindamycin-resistant MRSA lead to therapeutic issues. • Emergence of Staphylococcus lugdunensis from joint and bone infections should be monitored. • Linezolid resistance arises from invasive coagulase-negative staphylococci. • Clonal spread of a cfr -harbouring ST2 Staphylococcus epidermidis clone is of concern.
