Carbapenem Resistance: A Review [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Sciences, 2017
Carbapenem resistance is a major and an on-going public health problem globally. It occurs mainly among Gram-negative pathogens such as Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii, and may be intrinsic or mediated by ...

Pervasive transmission of a carbapenem resistance plasmid in the gut microbiota of hospitalized patients

open access: greenNature Microbiology, 2021
Infections caused by carbapenemase-producing enterobacteria (CPE) are a major concern in clinical settings worldwide. Two fundamentally different processes shape the epidemiology of CPE in hospitals: the dissemination of CPE clones from patient to ...

Carbapenem resistance in the food supply chain

open access: yesJournal of Food Protection, 2023
Carbapenems are critically important antibiotic agents because they are considered the “last-resort” antibiotics for treating serious infections. However, resistance to carbapenems is increasing throughout the world and has become an urgent problem. Some

Mechanisms of Action of Carbapenem Resistance

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2022
Carbapenem antibiotics are the most effective antimicrobials for the treatment of infections caused by the most resistant bacteria. They belong to the category of β-lactams that include the penicillins, cephalosporins, monobactams and carbapenems. This class of antimicrobials has a broader spectrum of activity than most other beta-lactams antibiotics ...

Epidemiology and Diagnostics of Carbapenem Resistance in Gram-negative Bacteria

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2019
Carbapenem resistance in gram-negative bacteria has caused a global epidemic that continues to grow. Although carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae have received the most attention because resistance was first reported in these pathogens in the ...
