The incidence of mutti-drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infections (BSIs) increased two- to four-fold in three Israeli hospitals between 1997 and 2002, accounting for 3.5 18 % of all hospital-acquired BSIs. This was associated with increasing carbapenem resistance reaching 35-54 %, and by a dramatic increase in carbapenem consumption. Inhospital fatality rates ranged between 47 % and 58 % and were significantly higher than those seen with other nosocomial. Gram-negative pathogens. A. boumannii was not restricted to intensive care units, but had spread to all hospital wards. Multi-drug-resistant A. boumannii has the potential to reach endemicity in hospitals and warrants more vigorous and innovative efforts to limit its spread. (c) 2005 The Hospital Infection Society.
