Treating infections caused by carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) have spread worldwide, causing serious infections with increasing frequency. CPE are resistant to almost all available antibiotics, complicating therapy and limiting treatment options. Mortality rates associated with CPE infections are unacceptably high, indicating that the current therapeutic approaches

Therapeutic options for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infections. [PDF]
In recent years, carbapenem resistance among Enterobacteriaceae has dramatically increased and represents an important threat to global health. The optimal therapeutic management of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections has not been established, because to date, no clinical trials have been performed with this objective.
