Carbapenem-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacterial Infections in Children
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2020 Carbapenem-resistant organisms (CRO) are a major global public health threat. Enterobacterales hydrolyze almost all β-lactams through carbapenemase production. Infections caused by CRO are challenging to treat due to the limited number of antimicrobial options. This leads to significant morbidity and mortality. Over

Infection-related hemolysis and susceptibility to Gram-negative bacterial co-infection [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Increased susceptibility to co-infection with enteric Gram-negative bacteria, particularly non-typhoidal Salmonella, is reported in malaria and Oroya fever (Bartonella bacilliformis infection), and can lead to increased mortality. Accumulating epidemiological evidence indicates a causal association with risk of bacterial co-infection, rather than just ...

Imipenem/Cilastatin/Relebactam: A Review in Gram-Negative Bacterial Infections [PDF]
Drugs, 2021 Imipenem/cilastatin/relebactam (Recarbrio™) is an intravenously administered combination of the carbapenem imipenem, the renal dehydropeptidase-I inhibitor cilastatin, and the novel β-lactamase inhibitor relebactam. Relebactam is a potent inhibitor of class A and class C β-lactamases, conferring imipenem activity against many imipenem-nonsusceptible ...
