Global Antimicrobial Susceptibility Patterns of Staphylococcus aureus in Atopic Dermatitis

In this systematic review and meta-analysis, antimicrobial susceptibility of S aureus to β-lactams, erythromycin, clindamycin, and fusidic acid may be suboptimal for empirical use in individuals with atopic dermatitis. Significant differences in antimicrobial susceptibility patterns were found in high-income countries and in lower middle-income countries and upper middle-income countries for some antibiotics.
