Approaching zero : temporal effects of a restrictive antibiotic policy on hospital-acquired Clostridium difficile, extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing coliforms and meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
A restrictive antibiotic policy banning routine use of ceftriaxone and ciprofloxacin was implemented in a 450-bed district general hospital following an educational campaign.

One third of travellers to the poor regions of the (sub)tropics become colonized by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE). Co-resistance to non-beta-lactam antibiotics complicates the treatment of potential ESBL-PE infections.We analysed co-resistance to non-beta-lactams among travel-acquired ESBL-PE isolates of 90 ...

Antibiotic prophylaxis is associated with subsequent resistant infections in children with an initial extended-spectrum-cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infection [PDF]
The objective of this study was to assess the association between previous antibiotic use, particularly long-term prophylaxis, and the occurrence of subsequent resistant infections in children with index infections due to extended-spectrum-cephalosporin ...

Resistance to Ciprofloxacin and Levofloxacin fluoroquinolones in Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates in Sanandaj Health Centers [PDF]
Background and Aim: One of the most important bacterial resistance mechanisms is production of Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL). In addition, ESBL strains usually have resistance to several antibiotic classes, because multiple resistance genes are
