Background A nationwide survey was conducted in Japan from 2018–2019 to investigate the antimicrobial susceptibility of pathogens isolated from surgical site infections (SSI). Methods The resulting data were compared with that obtained in earlier surveys, conducted in 2010, 2014–2015, and 2018-2019. Results Seven main organisms were collected, and in total 2081 isolates were studied. Although a significant increase of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing organisms among Enterobacteriaceae was demonstrated in 2014–15 (13.5%) compared with 2010 (5.3%), the incidence remained 6.6% in 2018–19. Only one carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolates were identified in the 2018–2019 study. The geometric mean (GM) MICs for ESBL producing isolates in 2018–2019 were 0.08 µg/mL for meropenem, 2.67 µg/mL for tazobactam/piperacillin, 0.40 µg/mL for tazobactam/ceftolozane, 6.35 µg/mL for cefoxitin, and 1.12 µg/mL for gentamycin. Antibiotic susceptible rate in Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 95.5% in meropenem, 93.9% in piperacillin/tazobactam, 100% in tazobactam/ceftolozane, 97.0% in cefepime, 90.9% in ciprofloxacin, and 86.4% in gentamycin. There was no significant difference in methicillin resistance rate of Staphylococcus aureus isolates among 3 study periods (72.0% in 2010, 53.4% in 2014–2015, and 63% in 2018-19). MRSA isolates with a vancomycin MIC of 2μg/mL accounted for 9.7% in 2010, 1.2% in 2014–2015, and 3.1% in 2018-19. GM MICs for MRSA isolates were 2.09 µg/mL for linezolid, 0.32 µg/mL for tedizolid, and 0.61 µg/mL for daptomycin. GM MICs in linezolid and daptomycin for the isolates in 2018–19 tended to be increased compared with isolates in 2010 (1.74 to 2.09 and 0.35 to 0.61 µg/mL, respectively). More than 90% of isolates belonging to the Bacteroides fragilis group remained susceptible to tazobactam/piperacillin, meropenem, and metronidazole. In contrast, lower levels of susceptibility were observed for moxifloxacin (65.3%), cefmetazole (47.2%) and clindamycin (38.9%). In cefoxitin, non-fragilis Bacteroides isolates had lower rates of antibiotic susceptibility compared with B. fragilis. (51.3% vs. 81.8%). Conclusion Overall, the surveillance data clarified trends in antimicrobial susceptibility for organisms commonly associated with SSI.
