Global spread of antibiotic resistance: the example of New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM)-mediated carbapenem resistance.
The rapidity with which new types of antibiotic resistance can disseminate globally following their initial emergence or recognition is exemplified by the novel carbapenemase New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM). The first documented case of infection caused by bacteria producing NDM occurred in 2008, although retrospective analyses of stored cultures have identified the gene encoding this enzym...
متن کاملNew Delhi Metallo-β-Lactamase-Mediated Carbapenem Resistance: Origin, Diagnosis, Treatment and Public Health Concern
OBJECTIVE To review the origin, diagnosis, treatment and public health concern of New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM)-producing bacteria. DATA SOURCES We searched database for studies published in English. The database of PubMed from 2007 to 2015 was used to conduct a search using the keyword term "NDM and Acinetobacter or Enterobacteriaceae or Pseudomonas aeruginosa." STUDY SELECTION We co...
متن کاملNew Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-producing Acinetobacter baumannii: a novel paradigm for spreading antibiotic resistance genes.
The impact of carbapenemase production among clinically significant Gram-negative rods is becoming a major medical issue. To date, Acinetobacter baumannii has been considered as a final recipient of carbapenemase genes (imipenemase, Verona metallo-β-lactamase, Guiana extended-spectrum β-lactamase and Klebsiella pneumonia carbapenemase types) from Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. H...
متن کاملNew Delhi metallo-β-lactamase and multidrug resistance: a global SOS?
A case report of a multidrug-resistant (MDR) infection with a strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae carrying a novel metallo-b-lactamase (MBL), the New Delhi MBL (NDM-1), appears in this issue of Clinical Infectious Diseases [1]. Sidjabat and colleagues detail the presentation and susceptibility profile and give us a brief molecular characterization of an isolate of K. pneumoniae carrying blaNDM-1 th...
متن کاملHigh Prevalence of New Delhi Metallo-β-Lactamase-1 (NDM-1) Producers among Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae in Kuwait
The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of New Delhi metallo-β lactamase-1 (NDM-1) producing Enterobacteriaceae in Kuwait over a one year period. Consecutive Enterobacteriaceae isolates with reduced susceptibility to carbapenems were collected from four government hospitals in Kuwait from January-December 2014. Their susceptibility to 18 antibiotics was performed by determining the...
