Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) is an option for infections caused by MDR gram-negative bacilli. In this study, we aimed to analyze the in vitro antimicrobial activity of CAZ-AVI and other antimicrobial agents against gram-negative bacilli that were collected in Colombia between 2019 and 2021 from patients with bacteremia and skin and soft-tissue infections (SSTIs). A total of 600 Enterobacterales and 259 P. aeruginosa strains were analyzed. The phenotypic resistance of isolates, particularly non-susceptibility to meropenem, multidrug-resistant (MDR) isolates, and difficult-to-treat (DTR) P. aeruginosa, was evaluated according to CLSI breakpoints. Enterobacterales had the most susceptibility to CAZ-AVI (96.5%) and tigecycline (95%). Tigecycline and CAZ-AVI were the antimicrobial agents with the most in vitro activity against carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE). CAZ-AVI was the antimicrobial treatment with the most activity against P. aeruginosa. Tigecycline and CAZ-AVI were the antimicrobial agents with the most activity against CRE and MDR Enterobacterales. For P. aeruginosa, CAZ-AVI was the antimicrobial treatment with the most in vitro activity.
