Laboratories throughout New Zealand are requested to refer all invasive isolates of S. pneumoniae
to ESR as part of the laboratory-based surveillance of pneumococcal
invasive disease. The antimicrobial susceptibility of these isolates is
routinely tested at ESR. For data on antimicrobial susceptibility among
S. pneumoniae from non-invasive disease, see the General antimicrobial susceptibility data section here, and for the results of a 2008 survey of non-invasive pneumococci, see the Streptococcus pneumoniae from non-invasive disease section here
Annual reports on antimicrobial susceptibility among S. pneumoniae from invasive disease are available below for 2002 through to 2007. Since 2008, ESR has produced comprehensive annual reports on invasive pneumococcal disease, which include antimicrobial susceptibility data. Therefore, the separate reports on antimicrobial susceptibility have been discontinued. The invasive pneumococcal disease annual reports can be found here.
