Can the application of the international health regulations to antimicrobial resistance events help to preserve antimicrobials?

چکیده
Methods Using the example of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), we analyzed the potential role of the International Health Regulations (IHR), a legally binding agreement between 194 States Parties, whose aim is “to prevent, protect against, control and provide a public health response to the international spread of disease” with respect to AMR and assess whether selected CRE events fulfil the four criteria of Annex 2 of the IHR.

Resistance Rates to Various Antimicrobial Agents of Helicobacter pylori Isolates in Eastern Turkey
The aim of this study was to determine the resistance rates of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) to various antimicrobial agents. The agar disk diffusion method (Kirby Bauer) was used to determine the sensitivity of H. pylori isolates to various antimicrobials. Of the 61 H. pylori isolatestested, no isolates was resistant to amoxycillin and tetracycline. The resistance rates were 42.6% for metron...

Introduction: Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is intrinsically resistant to many antimicrobials. Like Pseudomonas spp., this bacterium has a remarkable ability to cause infections, particularly in the respiratory and urinary tracts. This study aims to determine the antimicrobial resistance pattern of S. maltophilia isolates collected from a tertiary care setting and frequency of multi, extensively...

متن کاملIllustrative examples of probable transfer of resistance determinants from food animals to humans: Streptothricins, glycopeptides, and colistin
Use, overuse, and misuse of antimicrobials contributes to selection and dissemination of bacterial resistance determinants that may be transferred to humans and constitute a global public health concern. Because of the continued emergence and expansion of antimicrobial resistance, combined with the lack of novel antimicrobial agents, efforts are underway to preserve the efficacy of current avai...
