Colistin Resistance Development Following Colistin-Meropenem Combination Therapy Versus Colistin Monotherapy in Patients With Infections Caused by Carbapenem-Resistant Organisms

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2019
Abstract Background We evaluated whether carbapenem-colistin combination therapy reduces the emergence of colistin resistance, compared to colistin monotherapy, when given to patients with infections due to carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative organisms.

Molecular mechanisms and genetic epidemiology of colistin resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Discover Bacteria
Colistin is a last-resort antibiotic for multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) P. aeruginosa infections; however, colistin-resistance is rising globally.

Resistance to Colistin in Klebsiella pneumoniae: A 4.0 Strain?

Infectious Disease Reports, 2017
The global rise of multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria represents an increasing threat to patient safety. From the first observation of a carbapenem-resistant gramnegative bacteria a global spread of extendedspectrum beta-lactamases and carbapenemases producing Klebsiella pneumoniae has been observed. Treatment options for multidrug-resistant K.
