Pneumococcal Bacteraemia in a British District General Hospital, Jan 2000-Mar 2001 56 cases of pneumococcal bacteraemia 18 isolates (32%) were antibiotic-resistant Three isolates of Spain 9V -3 clone (pen-R) 14 isolates of England 14 -9 clone (ery-R) One isolate of Spain 6B -2 clone (multi-R) Birtles A et al. J Med Microbiol 2004; 53: 1241-1246
6
Pneumococcal vaccines Pneumococci comprise ~90 serotypes Polysaccharide capsule is a virulence determinant (inhibits phagocytosis) Capsule antigens form basis for vaccines 7-valent conjugate vaccine (2006) 13-valent conjugate vaccine
7
Erythromycin Resistance in Invasive Pneumococci, England and Wales PCV-7 2mo to <2yrs Older patients Henderson K et al. J Antimicrob Chemother 2010; 65: 369-70.
8
Bacteraemia Due to MRSA, England & Wales % MRSA
9
Hospitals in England & Wales Sending EMRSA-15/16 to Reference Laboratory
10
Correlation of MRSA and Use of Macrolides, Cephalosporins and Fluoroquinolones Monnet DL et al. EID 2004; 10:1432-41.
11
Ciprofloxacin is excreted in sweat Disruption of normal skin microflora? Colonization of skin by ciprofloxacin-resistant MRSA? Spread of EMRSA-15/16
12
Distribution of MRSA Spa Types in Europe
13
Epidemiology of Cephalosporin Resistance in UK is Changing… 1980-90s: Nosocomial (e.g. ICUs) Commonly Klebsiella spp. TEM/SHV ESBLs Since 2003: Commonly E. coli CTX-M type ESBLs UTIs in elderly patients in the community (difficult to determine if community or HCAI)
14
PFGE Profile of CTX-M-producing E. coli 5 related strains Serotype O25:H4 MLST 131 Woodford N et al.J Antimicrob Chemother 2004; 54: 735-43 Other isolates diverse
15
Spread of E. coli Strain A CTX-M-15 Serotype O25:H4 Sequence type 131 Global spread
16
International Spread of E. coli 025:H4 ST131 with CTX-M-15
17
PFGE Profile of CTX-M-producing E. coli 5 related strains Serotype O25:H4 MLST 131 Woodford N et al.J Antimicrob Chemother 2004; 54: 735-43 Other isolates diverse
18
Bacterial Plasmids
19
Conjugating bacteria
20
Vancomycin-resistant enterococci Klebsiella pneumoniae Acinetobacter baumanii MDR TB Cephalosporin-resistant gonococci Carbapenemase-producing Gram-negative bacteria Spread of AMR
21
Antibiotic resistance involves both strain and gene spread Why are some strains epidemic and others not? How do we prevent strain spread (local/national/international)? Can we prevent plasmid spread? How important is plasmid spread in the gut? Epidemiology of resistance in commensal bacteria? Interventions (e.g. rapid tests; antibiotic stewardship)? What We Do and Don’t Know
