Characterization of Extensively Drug-Resistant or Pandrug-Resistant Sequence Type 147 and 101 OXA-48-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Causing Bloodstream Infections in Patients in an Intensive Care Unit

Avgoulea K. Di Pilato V. Zarkotou O.

Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae causes important health care-associated infections worldwide. An outbreak of sequence type 11 (ST11) OXA-48-producing K. pneumoniae (OXA-48-Kp) isolates occurred in Tzaneio Hospital in 2012 and was contained until 2014, when OXA-48-Kp reemerged. The present study involved 19 bloodstream infection (BSI)...

The ERACE-PA Global Surveillance Program: Ceftolozane/tazobactam and Ceftazidime/avibactam in vitro Activity against a Global Collection of Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Gill C. M. Aktath E. Alfouzan W.

The cephalosporin-β-lactamase-inhibitor-combinations, ceftolozane/tazobactam and ceftazidime/avibactam, have revolutionized treatment of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CR-PA). A contemporary assessment of their in vitro potency against a global CR-PA collection and an assessment of carbapenemase diversity are warranted. Isolates...

Multicenter, Prospective Validation of a Phenotypic Algorithm to Guide Carbapenemase Testing in Carbapenem-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Using the ERACE-PA Global Surveillance Program

Gill C. M. Aktath E. Alfouzan W.

Background: Carbapenemase-producing, carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CP-CRPA) is a global challenge. However, detection efforts can be laborious because numerous mechanisms produce carbapenem resistance. A minimum inhibitory concentration-based algorithm (imipenem- or meropenem-resistant plus ceftazidime-nonsusceptible plus...
