Sub-groups for beta-lactam antibiotics #100

Open agmcarthur opened 6 months ago

agmcarthur commented 6 months ago

CARD is starting to curated sub-families of beta-lactamases into the ARO, but we should also start to curate sub-groups of beta-lactams, e.g., more specific groupings than just cephalosporin. Starting this issue to spur us to review current classifications.

Examples: functional group (monobactams, penicillins, early (1st-2nd generation) cephalosporins, extended-spectrum (3rd-generation) cephalosporins, carbapenems, 4th generation cephalosporin cefepime, 5th generation cephalosporin ceftaroline, siderophore cephalosporin cefiderocol, and all beta-lactamase plus inhibitor combinations
