Antimicrobial treatment and outcomes of critically ill patients with OXA-48like carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae infections.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report on the clinical characteristics, antimicrobial therapy, and outcomes of 20 critically ill patients with severe OXA-48like infections. Carbapenem-based therapy demonstrated improved survival (odds ratio = 5.0) as compared with non-carbapenem therapy. Risk factors for mortality included Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation III score and length of stay, highlighting the significant influence of comorbidities and severity of underlying illness on outcomes.

OBJECTIVES To investigate the resistance to carbapenems in Enterobacteriaceae and the underlying resistance mechanisms in North Lebanon between 2008 and 2012. METHODS A total of 2767 Enterobacteriaceae isolates recovered from clinical samples collected in Nini Hospital (North Lebanon) were screened for a decrease in susceptibility or resistance to ertapenem (MIC >0.25 mg/L). Enterobacteriacea...
متن کاملCarbapenemase-producing enterobacteriaceae in Spain in 2012.
We report the epidemiological impact of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) in Spain in 2012. Of the 237 carbapenemases detected, 163 were from the OXA-48 group, 60 were from VIM-1, 8 were from KPC-2, 5 were from IMP, and 1 was from NDM-1. Interhospital spread of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae was due to a limited number of multilocus sequence types (MLST) and carbap...
