Antimicrobial resistance was common in urinary Enterobacterales isolates. Isolates with an ESBL-producing phenotype increased by about 30% between 2011 and 2020, and significant increases were also observed in NFT NS Enterobacterales isolates. Resistance rates for all four antibiotic classes were higher than thresholds recommended for use as empiric therapy. Non-E. coli Enterobacterales isolates showed high levels of resistance to commonly used empiric antibiotics, including NFT. These data may help inform empiric therapy choices for outpatients with UTIs.
