- •
Isolation of NTM increased over time, primarily driven by Mycobacterium avium complex and Mycobacterium abscessus.
- •
Just over half of subjects isolating NTM met ATS 2007 microbiological criteria.
- •
More than one different NTM species was isolated in 20.6% of subjects.
- •
Resistance to the key agents clarithromycin and amikacin was rare.
- •
The highest rates of drug resistance were found in M. abscessus and Mycobacterium simiae.
