Unmasking a looming crisis: Escalating MIC of last resort drugs against MRSA isolates from a tertiary care hospital in Central India

During the three years of the study, "MIC creep" was observed in vancomycin, teicoplanin, and linezolid and, to some extent, for daptomycin in MRSA strains. The recovery of VISA, TISA, and linezolid-resistant MRSAs is worrisome, suggesting possible MRSA treatment failure and being a forerunner of resistant strains.

Abstract

During the three years of the study, "MIC creep" was observed in vancomycin, teicoplanin, and linezolid and, to some extent, for daptomycin in MRSA strains. The recovery of VISA, TISA, and linezolid-resistant MRSAs is worrisome, suggesting possible MRSA treatment failure and being a forerunner of resistant strains.
