AIM: To assess serotype distribution, antibiotic resistance, and vaccine coverage against Streptococcus pneumoniae causing invasive infections in Croatian adults from 2005 to 2019.
METHODS: In this retrospective study, invasive pneumococcal strains were collected through a microbiological laboratory network with country coverage >95%. Capsular typing was performed with the Quellung reaction. In vitro susceptibility testing was carried out according to the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Twating guidelines. In macrolide-resistant isolates, the presence of ermB and mefA genes was evaluated.
RESULTS: During the fifteen-year study period, 1123 invasive pneumococcal isolates were obtained. The most prevalent serotypes were 3, 14, 19A, 9V, 7F, and 23F, comprising 60% of all invasive pneumococcal isolates. Serotype 3 was the dominant serotype, with the highest prevalence in patients ≥65 years of age. Penicillin susceptibility, increased exposure was 18.6%, mostly associated with serotypes 14 and 19A. Resistance to penicillin was low (<1%). Macrolide resistance was 23%, mostly associated with serotypes 14, 19A, and 19F. The coverage with 13-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV13) and 23-valent polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23) was 80.2% and 93.6%, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease in adults is highest in patients ≥65 years of age. Penicillin susceptibility, increased exposure and macrolide resistance were mostly associated with serotypes 14 and 19A. PCV13 and PPV23 provide very high serotype coverage. Future studies should evaluate the effects of the 10-valent vaccine, introduced in the Croatian National Immunization Program in June 2019, on serotype distribution and antibiotic resistance rates.
