Non-fermenting Gram-negative bacteria (NFGNB) are increasingly cultured in respiratory samples from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. This study determined the antimicrobial susceptibility of clinical CF respiratory isolates from distinct geographical regions. A total of 286 isolates (106 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, 100 Burkholderia spp., 59 Achromobacter spp., 12 Pandoraea spp., 9 Ralstonia spp.) from the Netherlands, Northern Ireland, Spain, USA and Australia were tested.
