Antimicrobials Increase Travelers' Risk of Colonization by Extended-Spectrum Betalactamase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae
BACKGROUND More than 300 million travelers visit regions with poor hygiene annually. A significant percentage of them become colonized by resistant intestinal bacteria such as extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) and may transmit the strains to others and to medical care settings when they return home. Despite the threats to global healthcare caused by an upsu...
متن کاملExtended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae in International Travelers and Non-Travelers in New York City
BACKGROUND We performed this study 1) to determine the prevalence of community-associated extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBLPE) colonization and infection in New York City (NYC); 2) to determine the prevalence of newly-acquired ESBLPE during travel; 3) to look for similarities in contemporaneous hospital-associated bloodstream ESBLPE and travel-associated ESBLPE...
متن کاملDuration of colonization by extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae after hospital discharge.
BACKGROUND The duration of gastrointestinal colonization with extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) may play a major role in the spread of these organisms. We evaluated the time to, and factors associated with, ESBL-E clearance after hospital discharge. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed prospective surveillance results obtained over 14 years in a 1,000-bed hosp...
متن کاملIntestinal Colonization by Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae in Infants.
BACKGROUND Members of the Enterobacteriaceae family are common agents of nosocomial infections. Intestinal colonization by these microorganisms represents a major step in the development of systemic infection. Extended-spectrum b-lactamase-producing bacteria are usually associated with outbreaks, but endemic infections are common in intensive care units. OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency o...
متن کاملExtended-Spectrum β-Lactamase–producing Enterobacteriaceae among Travelers from the Netherlands
A prospective cohort study was performed among travelers from the Netherlands to investigate the acquisition of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CP-E) and extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) and associated risk factors. Questionnaires were administered and rectal swab samples were collected and tested before and after traveler return. Of 370 travelers,...
