A systematic scoping review of metrics utilized to measure antibiotic consumption in hospital settings

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) programs were introduced to promote the judicious use of antimicrobials and to combat antimicrobial resistance. Quantifying antibiotic consumption is an important part of AMS initiatives to achieve these objectives.

Rapid onset and offset of the interaction between rifampicin and long‐acting cabotegravir/rilpivirine: A pharmacokinetic case report

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Long‐acting intramuscular cabotegravir/rilpivirine (LA CAB/RPV) is contraindicated with rifampicin because of the risk of markedly reduced antiretroviral exposure, although clinical pharmacokinetic data for this interaction are lacking. We describe a 49‐year‐old man with virologically suppressed HIV‐1 infection receiving LA CAB/RPV every 8 weeks who ...

Phenotypic and Molecular Detection of Methicillin Resistance in S. aureus

Kasmera, 2008
Detecting methicillin resistance is complicated due to the heterogeneity of its phenotypic expression, making its detection difficult in the laboratory; this has led to the development of several techniques to increase its expression in vitro. Four techniques for detecting methicillin resistance were evaluated: the disk diffusion method with oxacillin (

Hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine surface‐engineered bioprosthetic heart valves with anti‐calcification, anti‐infection, and durability

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The challenges of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHV) with respect to calcification, infection, and poor durability are tackled by surface engineering of hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine (HBPL), providing a translational solution to improve long‐term valve performance.

Survey of policy for MRSA screening in English cataract surgical units and changes to practice after updated National guidelines [PDF]

, 2013
National guidelines on MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) screening policy in England have changed on a number of occasions, but there is limited data on its influence at a local level. The aim of this study was to determine if changes in
