CLSI(8) Enterobacter, Citrobacter, and Serratia may develop resistance during
prolonged therapy with third-generation cephalosporins as a result of
derepression of AmpC - lactamase. Therefore, isolates that are initially
susceptible may become resistant within three to four days after initiation oftherapy. Testing of repeat isolates may be warranted.
Enterobacterspp., Citrobacter freundii, Serratia spp. and Morganella
morganii. If susceptible in- vitro, the use of monotherapy of cefotaxime
should be discouraged, owing to the risk of selection of resistance, or
suppress the susceptibility testing result for this agent.
BSAC (EUCAST?)
Inducible plasmid AmpC (DHA) in K. pneumoniae?
CDS method
E. cloacae, E. aerogenes, C. freundii, inducible pAmpC High frequency of derepressedmutants (10-5 to 10-6)
Report R to all cephalosporins Test cefepime and carbapenems Do not attempt to test other -lactams
S. marcescens No derepressedmutants with ceftazidime, tazocin and
aztreonam
Derepressedmutants with other -lactams includingcefotaxime.
H. alvei, P. stuartii, P. rettgeri and M. morganii
Very low mutation rate (10-8) Test and report accordingly
