Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infections have spread globally, leaving
polymyxins, including colistin, as 'last-resort treatments'. Emerging colistin resistance raises …

Background Gram-negative antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is of global concern, yet there
are few reports from low-and low-middle-income countries, where antimicrobial choices are …

Background: Surveillance of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is central for defining
appropriate strategies to deal with changing AMR levels. It is unclear whether childhood …

Background Nosocomial bloodstream infections (nBSIs) are an important cause of morbidity
and mortality and are the most frequent type of nosocomial infection in pediatric patients …

Introduction: Antibiotic treatment in premature infants is often empirically prescribed, and
practice varies widely among otherwise comparable neonatal intensive care units …

Late onset neonatal sepsis (LOS) has a high mortality and the optimal management is
poorly defined. We aimed to evaluate new expert panel-derived criteria to define LOS and …

Acinetobacter spp. are important nosocomial pathogens, in particular the Acinetobacter
baumannii-calcoaceticus complex, which have become a global public health threat due to …

Introduction. Acinetobacter baumannii is a Gram-negative nosocomial pathogen that has the
capacity to develop resistance to all classes of antimicrobial compounds. However, very little …

Background Exploring the distribution of nosocomial pathogens among different categories
of intensive care units (ICUs) is critical to improving the management of health care …

Background Antimicrobial resistance increasingly impacts paediatric mortality, particularly in
resource-constrained settings. We aimed to evaluate the susceptibility profiles of bacteria …
