Management of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infections [PDF]
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

Antibiotic Susceptibility Patterns for Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae. [PDF]
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: a review of treatment and outcomes [PDF]
The emergence of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacteriaceae is an important threat to global health. Reported outcomes of infections with carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are poor. Very few options remain for the treatment of these virulent organisms.

Deaths Attributable to Carbapenem-ResistantEnterobacteriaceaeInfections [PDF]
We evaluated the number of deaths attributable to carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae by using studies from around the world published before April 9, 2012. Attributable death was defined as the difference in all-cause deaths between patients with carbapenem-resistant infections and those with carbapenem-susceptible infections.

Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
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]
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
