Point prevalence surveys of antimicrobial use among eight neonatal intensive care units in India: 2016 [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Information about antimicrobial use is scarce and poorly understood among neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in India. In this study, we describe antimicrobial use in eight NICUs using four point prevalence surveys (PPSs). METHODS: As part

This scoping review with textual analysis maps antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella across aquaculture, seafood, and related aquatic environments. Across 93 studies, recurrent MDR patterns suggest sentinel serotypes (S. Typhimurium, S. Newport) and a minimal antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) panel to guide matrix‐stratified One Health ...

Background Ventricular assist devices (VADs) are increasingly used as a bridge to transplantation or as destination therapy in heart failure patients. Fungal bloodstream infections, though less common than bacterial infections in VAD recipients, carry the highest mortality.

Background The prevalence of antimicrobial resistance among gram-negative pathogens in complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAIs) has increased. In the absence of timely information on the infecting pathogens and their susceptibilities, local or ...

Increasing proportion of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae and emergence of a MCR-1 producer through a multicentric study among hospital-based and private laboratories in Belgium from September to November 2015 [PDF]
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) strains have been increasingly reported in Belgium. We aimed to determine the proportion of CPE among Enterobacteriaceae isolated from hospitalised patients and community outpatients in Belgium in 2015 ...

A Rare Case of Prosthetic Joint Infection Caused by Group D Salmonella
Prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) are gaining growing attention as a healthcare issue. Salmonella spp. is a rare cause of PJI, mostly involving hip arthroplasty rather than knee arthroplasty. Therefore, clinical experience on the management of PJI involving knee arthroplasties caused by Salmonella spp. is scant.

Activity of Ceftolozane–Tazobactam against Burkholderia pseudomallei [PDF]
We investigated the in vitro activity of a novel fifth-generation cephalosporin–tazobactam combination, ceftolozane–tazobactam against Burkholderia pseudomallei, the etiological agent of melioidosis. Using both disc diffusion and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) strip techniques against 56 clinical isolates and an national collection of type ...

Effective antibiotic conservation by emergency antimicrobial stewardship during a drug shortage [PDF]
We present the first description of an antimicrobial stewardship program (ASP) used to successfully manage a multi-antimicrobial drug shortage. Without resorting to formulary restriction, meropenem utilization decreased by 69% and piperacillin-tazobactam

Many antibiotics originate from soil‐inhabiting Actinobacteria, especially from the diverse genus Streptomyces. However, the emergence of antibiotic resistance poses a significant global challenge to treating infectious diseases. Therefore, the search for Actinobacteria, particularly from less‐explored environments, as potential sources of novel ...
