Daptomycin exposure precedes infection and/or colonization with daptomycin non-susceptible enterococcus.

Antimicrobial resistance and infection control

Storm JC, Diekema DJ, Kroeger JS, Johnson SJ, Johannsson B.
PMID: 22958379
Antimicrob Resist Infect Control. 2012 May 29;1(1):19. doi: 10.1186/2047-2994-1-19.

BACKGROUND: Daptomycin non-susceptible enterococci (DNSE) are emerging as an important cause of healthcare-associated infection, however little is known about the epidemiology of DNSE. At the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics (UIHC) an increase in the frequency of patients...

USA300 Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Cuba.

Antimicrobial resistance and infection control

Hopman J, Peraza GT, Espinosa F, Klaassen CH, Velázquez DM, Meis JF, Voss A.
PMID: 22958408
Antimicrob Resist Infect Control. 2012 Jan 26;1(1):2. doi: 10.1186/2047-2994-1-2.

BACKGROUND: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is an increasing problem in the Caribbean. We investigated the molecular epidemiology of MRSA isolates on Cuba.FINDINGS: The predominant clone was of the spa type t149, followed by community-associated MRSA USA300.CONCLUSIONS: We report the first...

WAAR (World Alliance against Antibiotic Resistance): Safeguarding antibiotics.

Antimicrobial resistance and infection control

Carlet J, Rambaud C, Pulcini C.
PMID: 22958542
Antimicrob Resist Infect Control. 2012 Jul 09;1(1):25. doi: 10.1186/2047-2994-1-25.

SUMMARY: Resistance to antibiotics has increased recently to a dramatic extend, and the pipeline of new antibiotics is almost dry for the five next years. Failures happen already for trivial community acquired infections, like pyelonephritis, or peritonitis, and this...

Carriage of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing enterobacteriacae among internal medicine patients in Switzerland.

Antimicrobial resistance and infection control

Pasricha J, Koessler T, Harbarth S, Schrenzel J, Camus V, Cohen G, Perrier A, Pittet D, Iten A.
PMID: 23759067
Antimicrob Resist Infect Control. 2013 Jun 12;2:20. doi: 10.1186/2047-2994-2-20. eCollection 2013.

BACKGROUND: The incidence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing-enterobacteriacae (ESBL-E) infection is rising worldwide. We aimed to determine the prevalence and nosocomial acquisition rate of ESBL-E as well as the risk factors for ESBL-E carriage and acquisition amongst patients consecutively admitted...

New dominant spa type t2741 in livestock-associated MRSA (CC398-MRSA-V) in Finnish fattening pigs at slaughter.

Antimicrobial resistance and infection control

Heikinheimo A, Johler S, Karvonen L, Julmi J, Fredriksson-Ahomaa M, Stephan R.
PMID: 26941953
Antimicrob Resist Infect Control. 2016 Mar 02;5:6. doi: 10.1186/s13756-016-0105-8. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: The emergence of livestock-associated MRSA has become a growing public health concern worldwide. Studies elucidating the population structure, as well as resistance phenotypes and virulence gene profiles of livestock-associated MRSA strains are needed to improve risk assessment and...

Black Box Oxidizers.

Infection control and hospital epidemiology

Kampf G.
PMID: 28946928

Where is the difference between an epidemic and a high endemic level with respect to nosocomial infection control measures? An analysis based on the example of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium in hematology and oncology departments.

GMS hygiene and infection control

Ulrich N, Gastmeier P.
PMID: 28890862
GMS Hyg Infect Control. 2017 Aug 28;12:Doc14. doi: 10.3205/dgkh000299. eCollection 2017.

Some infection control recommendations distinguish epidemic and endemic levels for infection control. However, it is often difficult to separate long lasting outbreaks from high endemic levels and it remains open, if this distinction is really useful.
