Enterobacteriaceae producing the Ambler class D OXA-48 carbapenemase, combined with additional resistance mechanisms, such as permeability defects or cocarriage of class A, B, or C β-lactamases, can become highly resistant to most β-lactams currently in use, including carbapenems. A total of 45,872 Enterobacteriaceae clinical isolates collected in 39 countries as part of the International Network for Optimal Resistance Monitoring (INFORM) global surveillance study in 2012 to 2015 were tested for susceptibility to β-lactams and comparator agents using the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute broth microdilution methodology and screened for the presence of β-lactamases.
