Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2017 Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) have emerged as a major threat. Commonly used antibiotics are generally inactive against CRE. Therefore, timely detection of CRE is of paramount importance. Among CRE, those producing carbapenem-hydrolyzing β-lactamase enzymes (carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae) are particularly of concern because ...

Environmental Contamination by Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2012 ABSTRACT In the last decade, the global emergence of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacteriaceae has posed great concern to public health. Data concerning the role of environmental contamination in the dissemination of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are currently ...

Emerging superbugs: The threat of Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriaceae
AIMS Microbiology, 2020 Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are gram-negative bacteria that are resistant to carbapenems, a group of antibiotics considered as the last-resource for the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria.

Carbapenem Resistance In Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Sohag Medical Journal, 2020 Carbapenem resistance is now a public health concern worldwide. Carbapenem is considered the last resort antimicrobial drug used for treatment of hospital care associated infection and community acquired infection that resistant to all other β-lactam drugs. There are a different mechanisms by which bacteria become resistant to carbapenem drug including

Management of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infections [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2019 Carbapenem resistance is defined as in vitro non-susceptibility to any carbapenem and/or documented production of a carbapenemase. This feature has rapidly spread worldwide among clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae, mostly Klebsiella spp., and is associated with diverse molecular mechanisms. Carbapenem resistance is often associated with resistance

Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae: Epidemiology and Prevention [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2011 Over the past 10 years, dissemination of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) has led to an increase in the prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) in the United States. Infections caused by CRE have limited treatment options and have been associated with high mortality rates. In the previous year, other carbapenemase subtypes,

Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae Infections in Children [PDF]
Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2015 Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are an emerging global public health threat. Infections due to CRE are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Few therapeutic options are available for treatment of these infections, and optimal antibiotic treatment regimens are unclear.

Carbapenem‐resistant Enterobacteriaceae: biology, epidemiology, and management [PDF]
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2014 Introduced in the 1980s, carbapenem antibiotics have served as the last line of defense against multidrug‐resistant Gram‐negative organisms. Over the last decade, carbapenem‐resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) have emerged as a significant public health threat.

Antibiotic Susceptibility Patterns for Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae
International Journal of Microbiology, 2023 Carbapenem is a broad-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotic considered the last choice for the treatment of antibiotic-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Thus, the increasing rate of carbapenem resistance (CR) in Enterobacteriaceae is an urgent public health threat.
