Incidence of infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii
American Journal of Infection Control, 2019Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CR-Ab) has become a worrying health care problem, mainly in developing countries, such as Brazil. The objective was to investigate the prevalence and prognostic factors for CR-Ab infections at a Brazilian university hospital and examine the impact of inappropriate antimicrobial therapy on patient outcome.A ...

Worldwide Prevalence of Carbapenem Resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii
Infectious Diseases in Clinical Practice, 2023IntroductionAcinetobacter baumanniiis an opportunistic pathogen that can cause hospital-acquired infections. Indiscriminate use of antibiotics has led to a significant increase in the incidence of acquired drug resistance among clinical isolates ofA. baumannii. This study aims to assess the resistance to carbapenems betweenA. baumanniiclinical isolates

Nursing Home as a Reservoir of Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii
Microbial Drug Resistance, 2015Acinetobacter baumannii is an increasingly common pathogen in healthcare settings globally. It is frequently resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents and there are recent reports on strains that are pandrug resistant. The aim of the study was to characterize the mechanisms of carbapenem resistance of

Zhongguo yi xue ke xue yuan xue bao. Acta Academiae Medicinae Sinicae, 2004To investigate the mechanism of carbapenems resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii.WHONET-5 software was used to analyze the trend of carbapenem resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii collected from 1999 to 2001 at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Analytical isoelectric focusing was used to measure the pI of the beta-lactamase.

How to Treat Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Infections
Infectious Disease Clinics of North America: Acinetobacter baumannii, particularly carbapenem-resistant strains (CRAB), represents a critical global health threat due to its multidrug resistance and association with severe healthcare-associated infections. Treatment options remain limited, with high mortality rates observed in ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), bloodstream infections (BSI),

Implications of postneurosurgical meningitis caused by carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii
Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy, 2013Acinetobacter baumannii is an important cause of postneurosurgical meningitis. The emergence of carbapenem-resistant strains in this setting has caused a therapeutic challenge. We investigated the clinical implications of postneurosurgical meningitis caused by carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii.

Treatment Approaches for Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Infections
DrugsCarbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii has been associated with over three hundred thousand annual deaths globally. It is resistant to most available antibiotics and associated with high morbidity and mortality. No global consensus currently exists for treatment strategies that balance safety and efficacy because of heterogeneity of treatment ...

Carbapenem-resistantAcinetobacter baumannii: epidemiology, surveillance and management
Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2013Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii pose a significant threat to hospitalized patients, as therapeutic options are scarse. Alarmingly, rates of carbapenem-resistance in A. baumannii are on the rise and are slowly becoming a routine phenotype for this organism.
