Schematic overview¹ of numbers of patients with (3GC-R GNB) blood and surveillance isolates, and patients with any GNB surveillance isolate followed by any GNB blood culture within 1 year (time pair) between 2008 and 2018. In total, 321 patients with time-paired isolates were identified, represented by the grey overlay. In 139 patients with 3GC-R GNB blood isolates a time-paired surveillance isolate was available, represented with the slash up to the right. In 106/139 the 3GC-R GNB blood isolates was preceded by a 3GC-R GNB surveillance isolate, represented by the crossed lines. ¹The overview is included for illustrative purposes, the proportions displayed in this diagram are only an approximation of true proportions. 3GC-R third-generation cephalosporin-resistant.
