ARMOR study reports trends in antibiotic resistance over 10 years

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — The 10-year results of the ARMOR study confirmed the previously reported decrease in methicillin resistance among Staphylococcus aureus but not coagulase-negative staphylococci, according to a Bausch + Lomb press release.
The ongoing Antibiotic Resistance Monitoring in Ocular Microorganisms surveillance study (ARMOR) tracks in vitro antibiotic susceptibility profiles among ocular bacterial pathogens. Researchers reported resistance trends for 2,108 S. aureus and 1,721 coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) collected since January 2009.
