Antibiotic prophylaxis is associated with subsequent resistant infections in children with an initial extended-spectrum-cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infection [PDF]
The objective of this study was to assess the association between previous antibiotic use, particularly long-term prophylaxis, and the occurrence of subsequent resistant infections in children with index infections due to extended-spectrum-cephalosporin ...

Hospital sewage in Brazil: a reservoir of multidrug-resistant carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
The One Health concept recognizes that human health is clearly linked to the health of animals and the environment. Infections caused by bacteria resistant to carbapenem antibiotics have become a major challenge in hospitals due to limited therapeutic ...

Klebsiella pneumoniae is associated with high antimicrobial resistance and is commonly isolated from colonization and healthcare‐associated infections (HAIs). This study is aimed at developing and validating molecular assays to detect resistance genes belonging to the bla family in resistant K. pneumoniae isolates.
