The increasing antimicrobial resistance among pathogens frequently isolated from patients with bacterial meningitis formed the rationale to perform a surveillance study to determine the prevalence of resistance in The Netherlands. Haemophilus influenzae strains ( n =316) isolated from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), 1125 meningococcal strains isolated from blood or CSF and 398 pneumococcal strains isolated from CSF in 1993 and 1994 were tested by the Etest for susceptibility to commonly prescribed antibiotics for the treatment of community-acquired meningitis.
