Gram-negative bacteria that produce carbapenemases causing death attributed to recent foreign hospitalization.
Overseas travel, as a risk factor for the acquisition of infections due to antimicrobial-resistant organisms, has recently been linked to carbapenemase-producing Gram-negative bacteria. Multiresistant Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, and Acinetobacter baumannii strains were isolated from a wound of a Canadian patient with a recent history of hospitalization in India. This resulted in th...

متن کاملlaboratory detection of carbapenemases in gram-negative bacteria
the nosocomial infections, caused by multi-drug resistant bacteria, are the most important cause of mortality throughout the world. one important mechanism against beta-lactam antibiotics is the production of beta-lactamases. enterobacteriaceae and non-fermentative bacteria, like pseudomonas aeruginosa and acinetobacter baumannnii may produce these enzymes. currently, there is no vaccine to pre...
متن کاملLaboratory detection of Enterobacteriaceae that produce carbapenemases.
A study was designed to evaluate the modified Hodge test (MHT), Mastdiscs ID inhibitor combination disks (MDI), Rosco Diagnostica Neo-Sensitabs (RDS), metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) Etest, and in-house multiplex PCR for the detection of well-characterized carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. One hundred forty-two nonrepeat clinical isolates of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (inclu...
متن کاملDissemination of carbapenemases producing Gram negative bacteria in the Middle East.
The emergence and spread of carbapenemase-producing bacteria, that hydolyze most β-lactams, including carbapenems, are a major concern of public health system worldwide, particularly in the Middle East area. Since the plasmids harboring resistance genes could be spread across other bacterial populations, detection of carbapenemase-producing organisms has become more problematic. These organisms...
