Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis Bacteremia: Acquisition and Outcome

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1995
The incidence of enterococcal bacteremia due to Enterococcus faecium is increasing. To understand the clinical significance of E. faecium bacteremia, we compared 16 patients who were bacteremic due to E. faecium to 56 patients who were bacteremic due to Enterococcus faecalis. E. faecium bacteremia developed most frequently in severely ill patients with

Antibiotic Susceptibility of Periodontal Enterococcus faecalis

Journal of Periodontology, 2013
Background: Enterococcus faecalis may contribute to periodontal breakdown in heavily infected subgingival sites, particularly in patients responding poorly to mechanical forms of periodontal therapy. Because only limited data are available on the antimicrobial sensitivity of enterococci of subgingival origin, this study evaluates the in vitro ...
