The Antimicrobial Testing Leadership and Surveillance (ATLAS) global surveillance program collected clinical isolates of Enterobacterales (n = 8416) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n = 2521) from 41 medical centers in 10 Latin American countries from 2017 to 2019. In vitro activities of ceftazidime-avibactam and comparators were determined using the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) broth microdilution method. Overall, 98.1% of Enterobacterales and 86.9% of P. aeruginosa isolates were susceptible to ceftazidime-avibactam. When isolates were analyzed by country of origin, susceptibility to ceftazidime-avibactam for Enterobacterales ranged from 97.8% to 100% for nine of 10 countries (except Guatemala, 86.3% susceptible) and from 75.9% to 98.4% for P. aeruginosa in all 10 countries. For Enterobacterales, 100% of AmpC-positive, ESBL- and AmpC-positive, GES-type carbapenemase-positive, and OXA-48-like-positive isolates were ceftazidime-avibactam-susceptible as were 99.8%, 91.8%, and 74.7% of ESBL-positive, multidrug-resistant (MDR), and meropenem-nonsusceptible isolates. Among meropenem-nonsusceptible isolates of Enterobacterales, 24.4% (139/570) carried a metallo-ß-lactamase (MBL); 83.3% of the remaining meropenem-nonsusceptible isolates carried another class of carbapenemase and 99.4% of those isolates were ceftazidime-avibactam-susceptible. Among meropenem-non-susceptible isolates of P. aeruginosa (n = 835), 25.6% carried MBLs; no acquired ß-lactamase was identified in the majority of isolates (64.8%; 87.2% of those isolates were ceftazidime-avibactam-susceptible). Overall, clinical isolates of Enterobacterales collected in Latin America from 2017 to 2019 were highly susceptible to ceftazidime-avibactam, including isolates carrying ESBLs, AmpCs, and KPCs. Country-specific variation in susceptibility to ceftazidime-avibactam was more common among isolates of P. aeruginosa than Enterobacterales. The frequency of MBL-producers among Enterobacterales from Latin America was low (1.7% of all isolates; 146/8,416), but higher than reported in previous surveillance studies.
