Sustained pediatric antimicrobial stewardship program with consultation to infectious diseases reduced carbapenem resistance and infection-related mortality

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2017
Objective: The impact of pediatric antimicrobial stewardship programs (ASP) on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) remains largely unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the AMR for carbapenem of Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) and carbapenem use with infectious ...

Aminoglycoside-modifying Enzymes in Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Clinical Isolates

Mediterranean Journal of Infection, Microbes and Antimicrobials, 2022
Introduction: Aminoglycosides are the drug of choice for the treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. Aminoglycoside resistance in P. aeruginosa often occurred via acquired aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes (AMEs).
