PRS68 A Systematic Review of Chronic Rhinosinusitis in Asia-Pacfic and the Role of Balloon Sinuplasty
Abstract
moniae isolates remained stable during 2004-2009 and resistance to moxifloxacin and levofloxacin was low ( 1%). Moxifloxacin was the most potent fluoroquinolone available for treatment of S. pneumoniae infections in Belgium with MIC90 of 0.19 mg/L. CONCLUSIONS: The volume of fluoroquinolone use remains well controlled and fluoroquinolones were primarily used in those indications where they have been shown to yield clinical benefit. The use of fluoroquinolones has not led, to date, to an increase in the rate of pneumococcal resistance to fluoroquinolones.
