carbapenem-resistant bacteria and laboratory detection methods
نویسندگان
چکیده
carbapenemase producing bacteria frequently possess resistance mechanisms to a wide-range of antibacterial agents, and are associated with high mortality and morbidity rates. some enzymes like extended-spectrum β-lactamase (esbl), new delhi metallo-beta-lactamase-1 (ndm-1), klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (kpc), and oxa-producing enterobacteriaceae are very important in frequently isolated nosocomial bacteria, which cause resistant to many classes of drugs. ndm-1 or kpcs, is a worldwide health problem which is slowly increasing. there is no vaccine to prevent infections produced by carbapenem-resistant bacteria.

Continuing Challenges for the Clinical Laboratory for Detection of Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae
Detecting carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) can be difficult. In particular, the absence of FDA-cleared automated antimicrobial susceptibility test (AST) devices that use revised Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) carbapenem breakpoints for Enterobacteriaceae and the lack of active surveillance tests hamper the clinical laboratory. In this issue of the Journal of Cli...

The aim of this work was to evaluate the performance of the new chromogenic medium BrillianceTM CREAgar (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for determining the limit of detection of carbapenem-resistant enterobacteria (CRE). A total of 70 clinical isolates were studied. Of these, 30 were well-characterized CRE, including Klebsiella pneumoniae strains producing KPC-, VIM-, and OXA-type enzymes, VIM-posit...
متن کاملCombination therapy for carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria.
Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (CR-GNB) represent an increasing hazard in healthcare settings. A central question concerning the treatment of invasive infections caused by CR-GNB involves the use of combination therapy. Potential advantages of combination therapy include improved efficacy due to synergy, while the disadvantages include adverse events and increased antibiotic use wi...
متن کاملDetection of Carbapenem Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria in Clinical Isolates from a Tertiary Care Hospital
Multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria are a major public health threat. However, intense efforts to limit their spread, the number of multidrug resistant Gram-negative bacteria continues to increase globally. Carbapenems, the most broad-spectrum beta lactam antibiotics active against Gram-negative organisms, are very slowly hydrolyzed by most beta-lactamases. Because of their broad-spectru...
