Burden and trends of antimicrobial non-susceptibility in skin and soft tissue infections: nine-year microbiological surveillance from a tertiary hospital in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
Gram-negative organisms predominated in SSTIs, showing rising non-susceptibility to amikacin and carbapenems. Separately, among Gram-positive pathogens, <i>S. aureus</i> exhibited a clear decline in oxacillin resistance. These shifts underscore the need for ongoing resistance surveillance.
