Vancomycin-resistant enterococci

The American Journal of Medicine, 1997
Enterococci have been recognized as an important cause of nosocomial infections for almost 20 years and as a cause of endocarditis for almost a century. While long known for their capacity of displaying multiple antibiotic resistant traits, the extent to which this could occur was not fully appreciated until the emergence of enterococci with acquired ...

VANCOMYCIN-RESISTANT ENTEROCOCCI

The Lancet, 1988
Enterococci, a part of normal gut flora, are not particularly pathogenic organisms in humans. For example, they do not cause respiratory tract infections. The most frequent enterococcal infections are urinary tract infections. Despite their lack of pathogenicity, enterococci have emerged as significant nosocomial pathogens in the United States and ...

Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci

Critical Care Clinics, 2013
Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) consist mainly of Enterococcus faecalis and E faecium, the latter mostly hospital-acquired. In addition, E gallinarum and E casseliflavus are intrinsically vancomycin-resistant and are community-acquired. VRE have become common in many hospitals throughout the world and, once established, are very difficult to ...

Vancomycin-resistant Enterococci in Neonates

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2001
Fecal-oral transmission of vancomycin-resistant strains of Enterococci (VRE), which colonize the human gastrointestinal tract, has led to nosocomial epidemics in recent years. The aim of this study was to establish the incidence and associated factors of fecal colonization with VRE in neonates. In our hospital 110 rectal swab specimens collected in the
