Emergence of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci [PDF]
Vancomycin and ampicillin resistance in clinical Enterococcus faecium strains has developed in the past decade. Failure to adhere to strict infection control to prevent the spread of these pathogens has been well established.

Vancomycin resistant enterococci [PDF]
In a previous commentary, we made the case that the fear of methicillin resistant Stnpl~yZc~occus QZLY~US (MRSA) in their burn units caused some clinicians to use vancomycin, inappropriately, as a first line antibiotic to treat patients with clinical signs of sepsis in the absence of microbiological evidence that the patient was, indeed, infected with ...

Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci [PDF]
SUMMARYAfter they were first identified in the mid-1980s, vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) spread rapidly and became a major problem in many institutions both in Europe and the United States. Since VRE have intrinsic resistance to most of the commonly used antibiotics and the ability to acquire resistance to most of the current available ...

Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci [PDF]
Vancomycin‐resistant enterococci (VRE) are a major problem in numerous institutions in the United States. Most VRE are resistant to all available antimicrobial agents, resulting in serious therapeutic dilemmas. The resistance genes are transmitted on transposons, so the potential for dissemination to other species is significant.
