Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) continues to represent a significant global public health concern. Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) are the primary causative agents of severe nosocomial infections and possess a notable capacity to develop resistance mechanisms that restrict therapeutic options. The objective of this study was to characterize the antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of GNB isolated at a secondary-level hospital in Guadalajara, Mexico, with the aim of identifying predominant resistance patterns and the most effective therapeutic alternatives. A descriptive, retrospective, cross-sectional study was conducted using clinical isolates of Acinetobacter spp., Pseudomonas spp., Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., Morganella morganii, Proteus spp., and Enterobacter spp. collected during 2024. The identification and susceptibility testing were carried out using the VITEK^® 2 automated system, and the results were interpreted in accordance with CLSI guidelines. High resistance rates were observed in Acinetobacter spp. and Pseudomonas spp., particularly to carbapenems (>50% and >40%, respectively). Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp. demonstrated resistance to third-generation cephalosporins and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, exhibiting high susceptibility to amikacin and carbapenems (>90%). New-generation β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations, such as ceftazidime/avibactam and ceftolozane/tazobactam, have demonstrated high efficacy against resistant strains. Overall, GNB isolates in this secondary-level hospital demonstrated elevated resistance levels, particularly to β-lactams and carbapenems, which pose a significant therapeutic challenge. Nevertheless, amikacin, carbapenems, and new-generation β-lactams persist as valuable therapeutic options. In order to contain the spread of multidrug-resistant organisms, it is imperative to strengthen local surveillance, optimize antibiotic stewardship, and reinforce infection control measures.
