Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriaceae in Africa
Borneo Journal of Pharmacy, 2020 Carbapenems are regarded as unique among the β-lactam antibiotics due to their broad spectrum of activity and ability to resist β-lactamase hydrolysis.

The rapid spread of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Drug Resistance Updates, 2016 Carbapenems, our one-time silver bullet for multidrug resistant bacterial infections, are now threatened by widespread dissemination of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE). Successful expansion of Enterobacteriaceae clonal groups and frequent horizontal gene transfer of carbapenemase expressing plasmids are causing increasing carbapenem ...

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.

Therapeutic options for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infections [PDF]
Virulence, 2017 In recent years, carbapenem resistance among Enterobacteriaceae has dramatically increased and represents an important threat to global health. The optimal therapeutic management of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections has not been established, because to date, no clinical trials have been performed with this objective.

Antibiotic Susceptibility Patterns for Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae. [PDF]
Int J Microbiol, 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.

Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae in the community: a scoping review [PDF]
International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2017 Carbapenem antibiotics are used as a last resort to treat serious Gram-negative bacteria (GNB) infections; however, carbapenemase-producing strains of GNB have emerged as a major source of resistance. Owing to the highly transmissible nature of plasmid-borne carbapenemases, numerous reports have warned about the likely spread into the community from ...

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 ...

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
