Acinetobacter species are strictly aerobic, non-fermentative gram-negative rods, which can survive for months on dry surfaces. A. baumannii is the most important genomic species among Acinetobacter species as an etiology of health care-associated infections. The most common Acinetobacter infections are respiratory infections. MDRA (multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter spp) is a rapidly emerging pathogen in the health care setting worldwide and cases of MDRA have been reported in Japan recently as well. A selective medium for the isolation of MDRA would be an effective tool for active surveillance cultures and environmental cultures. Treatment options for MDRA infections in Japan are very limited, because colistin, polymyxin B, or tigecycline is not approved. Break-point Checkerboard Plate may help to infer effective antibiotic combinations. Keys to control MDRA are high levels of compliance with standard and contact precautions, appropriate cleaning and disinfection of the environment, and judicious antimicrobial use.
