Enterococcus faecium Bacteremia [PDF]
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1998 Enterococcus faecium has received increased attention, primarily due to the emergence of vancomycin resistance. The purpose of this investigation was to study the epidemiological characteristics of vancomycin-resistant E faecium (VRE) bacteremia and to determine the clinical impact of vancomycin resistance on the outcome of patients with this infection.

Daptomycin for highly resistant Enterococcus faecium infection [PDF]
Swiss Medical Weekly, 2012 We report a case series of 11 patients with severe E. faeciuminfections treated with daptomycin. All strains were resistant to ampicillin (MIC >8 mg/l), but susceptible to vancomycin. Seven out of 11 strains were also highly resistant to gentamicin (MIC >500 mg/l).
