Cefepime versus extended spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the susceptibility to cefepime of a large group of ESBL- producing enterobacteria recently isolated in a Brazilian teaching hospital . The study included 280 strains of ESBL-producing enterobacteria, isolated between 2005 and 2008. The presence of the genes blaCTX-M, blaTEM and blaSHV was determined by PCR and confirmed by nucleotide sequencing. Susce...
متن کاملCefepime Therapy for Cefepime-Susceptible Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae Bacteremia
The role of cefepime for extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) bacteremia is unclear if susceptible in vitro. In a propensity score-matched study of patients with ESBL bacteremia, risk of death was 2.87 times higher for patients receiving cefepime compared with carbapenems (95% confidence interval [CI], .88-9.41). We compared 14-day mortality of patients with ESBL bacteremia receiving empiric ce...

Emerging Infectious Diseases • www.cdc.gov/eid • Vol. 12, No. 5, May 2006 863 recovered and were discharged within 1 to 6 days. The 3.4% incidence of HBoV observed in our study is similar to that (3.1%) reported by Allander et al. (2). HBoV was the only infectious agent identified in 6 children, which suggests that it was the causative agent of the disease. However, more studies conducted in ch...
متن کاملRapid detection of extended-spectrum-β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae.
Enterobacterial strains producing clavulanic-acid-inhibited extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) are increasingly reported worldwide. Conventional detection of ESBL production remains time-consuming (24 to 48 h). Therefore, the ESBL NDP (Nordmann/Dortet/Poirel) test was developed for a rapid identification of ESBLs in Enterobacteriaceae. This biochemical test was based on the in vitro detecti...
متن کاملExtended-Spectrum β-Lactamase–Producing Enterobacteriaceae in a Malian Orphanage
We show high rates of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae carriage among the staff and children at an orphanage in Bamako, Mali. Enterobacteriaceae colonized in 100% and 63%, respectively, of the 38 children and 30 adults studied. Use of antimicrobial drugs appeared excessive and inappropriate; decontamination and hygiene protocols were also questioned.
