Detection and characterization of antimicrobial resistant bacteria from imported reptile and amphibian meat products
The Role of Point-of-Care C-Reactive Protein Testing in Antibiotic Prescribing for Respiratory Tract Infections: A Survey among Swiss General Practitioners
Understanding the decision-making strategies of general practitioners (GPs) could help reduce suboptimal antibiotic prescribing. Respiratory tract infections (RTIs) are the most common reason for…
Antimicrobial resistance and antibiotic consumption in intensive care units, Switzerland, 2009 to 2018

  • Medicine, Biology
    Euro surveillance : bulletin Europeen sur les maladies transmissibles = European communicable disease bulletin
  • 2021
TLDR
In Swiss ICU, antibiotic-resistant Enterobacterales have been steadily increasing over the last decade and the emergence of CRE, associated with institutional antibiotic consumption, is of particular concern and calls for reinforced surveillance and antibiotic stewardship.
Assessment of animal diseases caused by bacteria resistant to antimicrobials: Dogs and cats
TLDR
The antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria responsible for transmissible diseases that constitute a threat to dog and cat health have been assessed and EFSA identified S. pseudintermedius, E. coli and P. aeruginosa with > 90% certainty as the most relevant antimicrobial resistant bacteria in the EU based on the available evidence.
Antibiotic prescription monitoring and feedback in primary care in Switzerland: Design and rationale of a nationwide pragmatic randomized controlled trial
Comparison of antimicrobial prescription patterns in calves in Switzerland before and after the launch of online guidelines for prudent antimicrobial use
TLDR
After the introduction of AntibioticScout.ch, more prudent use was observed in the treatment of calves with pneumonia and diarrhea as less HPCIAs, particularly fluoroquinolones, and more first line antimicrobials were prescribed.
Antibiotic resistance and persistence—Implications for human health and treatment perspectives
TLDR
This review focuses on bacterial mechanisms allowing evasion of antibiotic killing and discusses their implications on human health, including the relationship between antibiotic persistence and bacterial heterogeneity, and discusses recent studies that link bacterial persistence and tolerance with the evolution of antibiotic resistance.
Campylobacter jejuni from Canine and Bovine Cases of Campylobacteriosis Express High Antimicrobial Resistance Rates against (Fluoro)quinolones and Tetracyclines
TLDR
High rates of resistance to (fluoro)quinolones and tetracyclines were found in C. jejuni and C. coli isolated from diseased animals, and associated AMR genes or mutations were identified by whole genome sequencing.
Co-occurrence of aminoglycoside and β-lactam resistance mechanisms in aminoglycoside- non-susceptible Escherichia coli isolated in the Zurich area, Switzerland.
Antimicrobial prescriptions and adherence to prudent use guidelines for selected canine diseases in Switzerland in 2016
TLDR
Overall, adherence to consensus guidelines was poor both, at university hospitals and private practices, and Antimicrobial stewardship measures are therefore needed to improve prudent use.

Presence of New mecA and mph(C) Variants Conferring Antibiotic Resistance in Staphylococcus spp. Isolated from the Skin of Horses before and after Clinic Admission
TLDR
Hospitalization and preventive penicillin use were shown to act as selection agents for multidrug-resistant commensal staphylococcal flora.
Fecal carriage of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in swine and cattle at slaughter in Switzerland.
TLDR
The relatively high rates of occurrence of ESBLproducing strains in food animals and the high genetic diversity among these strains indicate that there is an established reservoir of these organisms in farm animals.
Prevalence and resistance of commensal Staphylococcus aureus, including meticillin-resistant S aureus, in nine European countries: a cross-sectional study.
Human infection associated with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius ST71.
TLDR
This is the first case of a human infection caused by MRSP ST71 emphasizing its zoonotic potential and therapeutic challenge and it is confirmed that the wound had healed with scarring and no bacterium was detectable in a repeat smear.
Molecular Analysis of Human, Porcine, and Poultry Enterococcus faecium Isolates and Their erm(B) Genes
ABSTRACT Fifty-nine erm(B)-positive Enterococcus faecium strains isolated from pigs, broilers, and humans were typed using multilocus sequence typing (MLST), and the coding sequence of the erm(B)…
First countrywide survey of third-generation cephalosporin-resistant Escherichia coli from broilers, swine, and cattle in Switzerland.
Characteristics of extended-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant Escherichia coli isolated from Swiss and imported poultry meat.
TLDR
24 extended-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolated from domestic and imported poultry meat were characterized by antibiotic susceptibility testing, identification of the blaESBL/blapAmpC genes, conjugation mating experiments and determination of plasmid incompatibility types, multilocus sequence typing, and analysis of the Escherichia coli phylogenetic groups.
Clonal spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius in Europe and North America: an international multicentre study.
TLDR
Two major clonal MRSP lineages have disseminated in Europe and North America and regardless of their geographical or clonal origin, the isolates displayed resistance to the major classes of antibiotics used in veterinary medicine and thus infections caused by MRSP isolates represent a serious therapeutic challenge.
Discovery of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing Escherichia coli among hunted deer, chamois and ibex.
TLDR
Low occurrence of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae in the wild animal ecosystem in Switzerland must currently be postulated as further studies are necessary to assess future trends.
Human health hazard from antimicrobial-resistant enterococci in animals and food.
TLDR
It is found that neither the results provided by molecular typing that classifyEnterococci as host-specific organisms nor the occurrence of specific nosocomial clones of enterococci provide reasons to change the current view that antimicrobial-resistant enterococCI from animals pose a threat to human health.
