Background:Ceftazidime use in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) has increased after a cefotaxime shortage. The impact of this change is unknown. The purpose was to assess the effect of increased ceftazidime use on susceptibilities of Gram-negative organisms in the NICU.Methods:Retrospective study of Gram-negative isolates identified in blood, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, tracheostomy, abdominal fluid and pleural fluid cultures from a single-center NICU over a 5-year period. Duplicate cultures that occurred within 90 days were noted. Pre-and postshortage periods were defined based on cessation of cefotaxime. Third-and fourth-generation cephalosporin susceptibility rates were compared between periods, as well as rates of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) Escherichia coli and Klebsiella species.Results:Analysis included 666 isolates. Twelve (1.8%) were duplicate isolates that occurred after a 90-day period. The preshortage period included 464 (69.7%) isolates, and the postshortage included 202 (30.3%). No significant differences in susceptibility rates were noted when excluding duplicates. No difference in ESBL rates for E. coli were noted between periods (3.8% vs. 4.9%, P= 1.000). No ESBL-positive Klebsiella species were identified. A post-hoc analysis of duplicate isolates demonstrated significant lower susceptibility rates for Pseudomonas aeruginosa to ceftazidime (risk ratio 0.58; 95% CI: 0.43–0.79) and cefepime (risk ratio 0.66; 95% CI: 0.51–0.86).Conclusions:Ceftazidime use did not appear to affect susceptibility rates for third-and fourth-generation cephalosporins for most Gram-negative organisms in the short-term of 1.5 years. However, susceptibility rates for P. aeruginosa decreased when evaluating duplicate isolates. Long-term monitoring is needed to assess the true impact.
