We evaluated the antimicrobial susceptibility of 623 Gram-negative organisms causing infection in patients with cancer in 52 United States hospitals (2013-2014) as part of the International Network for Optimal Resistance Monitoring (INFORM) program. ...
With the increased prevalence of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, the use of colistin and other last-line antimicrobials is being revisited clinically. As a result, there has been an emergence of colistin-resistant bacterial species, inclu...
Efficient tools for rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) are crucial for appropriate use of antibiotics, especially colistin, which is now often considered a last resort therapy with extremely drug resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Here, we ...
