Stepwise evolution of pandrug-resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2015
AbstractCarbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) pose an urgent risk to global human health. CRE that are non-susceptible to all commercially available antibiotics threaten to return us to the pre-antibiotic era. Using Single Molecule Real Time (SMRT) sequencing we determined the complete genome of a pandrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate,

Metal-loaded zeolite remediation of soils contaminated with pandrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. [PDF]

Arh Hig Rada Toksikol, 2020
Abstract Due to the development of resistance to antimicrobial agents, bacterium Acinetobacter baumannii is nowadays a leading cause of nosocomial outbreaks. Clinically relevant A. baumannii outside hospital settings including natural soils affected by human waste represents a public-health risk for humans and animals.

Predicting sepsis mortality into an era of pandrug-resistant E. coli through modeling. [PDF]

Commun Med (Lond)
Abstract Background Infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria are increasingly frequent, burdening healthcare systems worldwide. As pathogens acquire resistance to all known antibiotics – i.e., become pan-resistant – treatment of the associated infections will become exceedingly difficult.

Combinations of Antibiotics Effective against Extensively- and Pandrug-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Patient Isolates. [PDF]

Microorganisms
Infections due to drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strains are increasing and cause significant morbidity and mortality, especially in hospitalized and critically ill patients. A. baumannii rapidly develops resistance to numerous antibiotics, and antibiotics traditionally used against this deadly pathogen have been failing in recent years ...

Successful Treatment of Carbapenemase-Producing Pandrug-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Bacteremia [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2015
ABSTRACT New antibiotic options are urgently needed for the treatment of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infections. We report a 64-year-old female with prolonged hospitalization following an intestinal transplant who developed refractory bacteremia due to a serine carbapenemase-producing pandrug ...

Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Myophage Abp9 Against Pandrug Resistant Acinetobacater baumannii. [PDF]

Front Microbiol, 2020
Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) has emerged as one of the most troublesome pathogens in health care institutions. A. baumannii can cause a wide range of diseases in humans, including pneumonia and septicemia. Phage therapy has drawn great interest from medical researchers as a potential way to control infections by antibiotic-resistant A ...

Evaluation of photodynamic therapy effect along with colistin on pandrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. [PDF]

Laser Ther, 2017
Pandrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (PDRAB) emerged in Taiwan in the early 2000s but was not identified in the Children's Hospital (Hospital A) until March 2005 when a patient was transferred from a respiratory care hospital (Hospital B). PDRAB was recovered from an eye swab taken on admission; once aware of the culture result, in addition to ...
