Prospective evaluation of an algorithm for the phenotypic screening of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae.
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to assess the performance of an algorithm based on the disc diffusion method for the screening of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) referred to the French National Reference Centre for Antibiotic Resistance. METHODS From April to June 2014, all isolates of Enterobacteriaceae referred to the French National Reference Centre for Antibiot...
متن کاملDevelopment of an algorithm for phenotypic screening of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in the routine laboratory
BACKGROUND Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) are difficult to identify among carbapenem non-susceptible Enterobacteriaceae (NSE). We designed phenotypic strategies giving priority to high sensitivity for screening putative CPE before further testing. METHODS Presence of carbapenemase-encoding genes in ertapenem NSE (MIC > 0.5 mg/l) consecutively isolated in 80 French laboratori...
متن کاملCarbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae.
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) were almost nonexistent up to the 1990s, but are today encountered routinely in hospitals and other healthcare facilities in many countries including the United States. KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae was the first to emerge and spread globally and is endemic in the United States, Israel, Greece, and Italy. Recently, NDM-producing Enterobacte...
متن کاملDissemination of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae
During the last decade, Gram-negative clinical isolates, including Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas spp. and Acinetobacter spp. with decreased susceptibility to carbapenems, have been increasingly reported in Europe. Carbapenem resistance in Enterobacteriaceae may be related either to the association of a decrease in bacterial outer-membrane permeability with overexpression of b-lactamases posse...
متن کاملCarbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae, U.S. Rivers
Our study was initiated by previous isolation of 30 imipenem-resistant, gram-negative rods from 7 of 16 U.S. rivers sampled from 1999 to 2001. Imipenem hydrolysis was detected in 22 of those isolates identified as Enterobacter asburiae. Random amplified polymorphism DNA analysis showed that these E. asburiae isolates were genetically indistinguishable. An identical clavulanic acid-inhibited bet...
