Abstract：
Antimicrobial resistance is a growing problem. Novel resistance mechanisms continue to emerge, and the pipeline of antimicrobial development struggles to keep up. Antimicrobial stewardship and proper infection control are key in preventing the spread of these infections. A case of a carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae complex urinary isolate was identified in an 81-year-old male patient at the San Antonio Veterans Affairs hospital, Texas, USA. The patient was placed on isolation, and further testing of the isolate to other antibiotics requested. The purpose of this study is to analyze the details of reports of such cases and to review at-risk populations and appropriate treatment for resistant organisms.
摘要：
抗菌素耐药性是一个日益严重的问题。新的抗性机制不断涌现，抗菌药物开发的管道难以跟上。抗菌药物管理和适当的感染控制是防止这些感染传播的关键。在圣安东尼奥退伍军人事务医院的一名81岁男性患者中发现了一例耐碳青霉烯类阴沟肠杆菌复合尿液分离株，德州,美国。病人被隔离，并要求对分离物进行其他抗生素的进一步测试。这项研究的目的是分析此类病例的报告细节，并审查高危人群和耐药生物的适当治疗方法。
