The alarming emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance among common bacteria threatens the effectiveness of therapy for many infections. Surveillance of antimicrobial resistance is essential to identify the major problems and guide adequate control measures. Several resistance surveillance programs have been implemented in North America and Europe in the last decade; however, very few programs have assessed antimicrobial resistance in Latin American countries. The SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program was initiated in 1997 and represents the most comprehensive surveillance program in place at the present time worldwide. The SENTRY Program collects consecutive isolates from clinically documented infections in more than 80 medical centers worldwide (10 in Latin America). The isolates are collected according to the type of infection (objectives) and susceptibility tested in a central microbiology laboratory by reference broth microdilution methods according to NCCLS guidelines. The Program also incorporated molecular typing (ribotyping and PFGE) and resistance mechanism analysis of selected isolates. In this report we present a very broad analysis of the data generated by testing almost 20,000 bacterial isolates against more than 30 antimicrobial agents. The susceptibility results (MIC50, MIC90 and % susceptible) are presented in 11 tables according to the organism and site of infection. The data from Brazil, as well as the data from isolates collected in 2001, are analyzed separately. This report allows the evaluation of the activities numerous antimicrobial agents against clinical isolates collected in Latin American countries. Key Words: SENTRY, antimicrobial resistance, nosocomial infection, surveillance, Latin America.
The importance of antimicrobial resistance among nosocomial and community-acquired pathogens is acknowledged worldwide. Well-designed antimicrobial surveillance programs are essential in the fight against these cases of resistance [1]. These programs provide important information on the trend in microbial occurrence in different geographical regions and antimicrobial resistance patterns in nosocomial and Received on 13 July 2003; revised 29 january 2004.

community-acquired infections. Such information has the potential to guide therapeutic approaches for serious infections, pending directions from local susceptibility testing, and may have value in the prevention and control of infection. However, in order to be effective, surveillance data should be analyzed, tabulated and rapidly presented to the medical community and infection control workers. The SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program (SENTRY) was initiated in 1997 and was designed to monitor the spectrum of microbial pathogens and antimicrobial resistance trends for both nosocomial and community-acquired infections on a global scale, by using validated reference quality identification and susceptibility testing methods in designated central laboratories [1-4]. Rapid communication and dissemination of information

is a guiding principal of the SENTRY Program. This report is a summary of the data collected in the Latin American region during the first five years of the SENTRY Program (1997 through 2001).
Material and Methods Study design The SENTRY Program was established to monitor the important pathogens and antimicrobial resistance patterns of nosocomial and community-acquired infections via a broad network of sentinel hospitals distributed by geographic location and size. The collection of isolates was done according to the site of infection and/or type of patient. The types of infections that are monitored include bloodstream infections or true bacteremia (BSI, objective A), communityacquired respiratory tract infections (CARTI, objective B), lower respiratory tract infections in hospitalized patients (LRTI, objective C), skin and soft tissue infections in hospitalized patients (SSTI, objective D), urinary tract infections in hospitalized patients (UTI, objective E), gastroenteritis (objective G), β-haemolytic streptococci from community-acquired infections (objective H), and assessment of pathogens and resistance patterns among infected patients in the intensive care unit (ICU, objective I). Objectives G, H and I were introduced into the program in 2001. Each participating center contributed results (organism identification, date of isolation, antimicrobial susceptibility profile, etc.) for the first 20 consecutive episodes of BSI per month from January 1997 to December 2001, 100 consecutive episodes of LRTI and CARTI per year from 1997 to 2001, 50 consecutive isolates from SSTI per year from 1997 to 2000, and 50 consecutive isolates from UTI per year from 1997 to 1999 and in 2001, 25 consecutive isolates of organisms considered producers of diarrheal diseases (gastroenteritis) collected in 2001, 25 consecutive β-haemolytic streptococci isolated from community-acquired infections in 2001, and 50 consecutive and clinically

relevant bacterial isolates from patients hospitalized in the ICU in 2001. Just one isolate per patient was included in the study and all isolates were saved on transport swabs and sent to the monitoring center (Iowa, USA) for storage and further characterization by reference identification and susceptibility testing methods. We evaluated all the isolates that were recovered and the data collected from January 1997 to December 2001. Participating centers The laboratories were distributed in various cites of six countries: Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Florianopolis, Porto Alegre, and Brasilia, Brazil; Buenos Aires and San Isidro, Argentina; Santiago (two centers), Chile; Medellin, Colombia; Mexico City, Mexico; and Montevideo, Uruguay. In 1998, the center located in Montevideo was replaced by a center in Caracas, Venezuela; and in 1999 the Brazilian center located in Rio de Janeiro was replaced by another Brazilian center in Porto Alegre, which is also located in the South region of Brazil. In 2001, the center located in Mendellin, Colombia was replaced by a center located in Brasilia, Brazil. The selection of participant centers was based on the principle that they should be representative in their respective geographic region. Species identification All isolates were identified at the participating institution by the routine methodology in use at each laboratory. On receipt at the monitoring center, isolates were subcultured on blood agar to ensure viability and purity. Species identification was confirmed by standardized methods or performed by using the Vitek System (bioMérieux, Hazelwood, MO) or API (bioMérieux, Hazelwood, MO). Isolates were frozen at -70°C until they were processed. Susceptibility testing Antimicrobial susceptibility testing of isolates was performed by reference broth microdilution methods,

as described by the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) [5]. Microdilution trays were purchased from TREK Diagnostics (Cleveland, OH), MicroScan (West Sacramento, CA), and PML Microbiologicals (Wilsonville, OR). Antimicrobial agents were obtained from their respective manufactures as laboratory grade powder and included cephalosporins (cefepime, cefuroxime, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, ceftazidime, cefazolin, cefoxitin, cefaclor, and cefixime), penicillins (ampicillin, penicillin, amoxicillin, and oxacillin), β-lactamase inhibitor combinations (amoxicillin-clavulanate, ticarcillin-clavulanate, and piperacillin-tazobactam), carbapenems (imipenem and meropenem), a monobactam (aztreonam), fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, gatifloxacin, and garenoxacin [formerly BMS 284756]), aminoglycosides (amikacin, gentamicin, and tobramycin), macrolides (erythromycin, azithromycin, and clarithromycin), glycopeptides (vancomycin and teicoplanin), the oxazolidinone linezolid, the streptogramin quinupristin-dalfopristin, and other drugs, such as clindamycin, chloramphenicol, tetracycline, rifampin, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. Quality control was performed by testing E. coli American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, and other strains, as recommended by the NCCLS [5,6]. Interpretive criteria for each antimicrobial tested were those published by the NCCLS [5,6].
Results Almost 20,000 clinical isolates were analyzed during this period, and the frequencies of the different pathogens were investigated (Table 1). The antimicrobial susceptibility data for the year 2001 were analyzed separately (Tables 2-5), while the data for the entire 5-year period was also compiled (Tables 6-11). In addition, data collected in the participating Brazilian centers were analyzed separately from the data of the entire Latin American region (including
27
Brazil). Minimum antimicrobial concentrations that inhibits 50% and 90% of the organism collection (MIC50 and MIC90, respectively) were presented only for the data of the entire region. Isolates collected from bloodstream infections and from lower respiratory tract infections (mainly pneumonia) in hospitalized patients were also analyzed separately (Tables 3, 5, 7 and 9). Two groups of pathogens, streptococci and extended-spectrum (ESBL)-producing strains, were analyzed separately due to their importance in community-acquired and nosocomial-acquired infections, respectively. Table 10 presents the antimicrobial susceptibility of streptococcal species, while Table 11 presents the antimicrobial susceptibility of ESBL-producing E. coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
Discussion We made a comprehensive analysis of the Latin American SENTRY Program data collected during the first five years of this global program. During this period, SENTRY has provided valuable information worldwide [2-4, 7-9]. The rapid publication of regional susceptibility data concerning a large number of antimicrobial agents, indexed by the site of infection, allowed the detection of considerable geographical variation of the in vitro activity of several antimicrobial agents and made evident the emergence of important resistance patterns. These data have been used to guide empirical therapy and the local implementation of control or intervention measures. In addition, SENTRY Program data has guided the implementation of more focused, local surveillance studies, which have been designed based on local resistance problems detected by SENTRY Program results [10,11]. The SENTRY Program has shown that resistance among Gram-negative bacteria seems to be much higher in Latin America when compared to other regions of the world, especially North America and Europe [1,2]. On the other hand, some resistance problems related to Gram-positive cocci, such as glycopeptideresistance among enterococci, and high-level penicillin-
