A total of 368 Gram-positive cocci from ABSSI were included in the study. S. aureus and S. pyogenes were susceptible to dalbavancin with MIC50 0.016 mg/L and MIC90 0.032 mg/L for MSSA and MIC50 0.032 mg/L and MIC90 0.047 mg/L for MRSA; MICs for S. pyogenes were ≤0.002-0.008 mg/L; for E. faecalis and E. faecium, ranging 0.016-0.12 mg/L and 0.012-≥32 mg/L, respectively; MICs for VRE were 0.032-0.125 mg/L.

D018461	Soft Tissue Infections	Infections of non-skeletal tissue, i.e., exclusive of bone, ligaments, cartilage, and fibrous tissue. The concept is usually referred to as skin and soft tissue infections and usually subcutaneous and muscle tissue are involved. The predisposing factors in anaerobic infections are trauma, ischemia, and surgery. The organisms often derive from the fecal or oral flora, particularly in wounds associated with intestinal surgery, decubitus ulcer, and human bites.
