Infectious Diseases Society of America Guidance on the Treatment of AmpC β-Lactamase-Producing Enterobacterales, Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia Infections

Pranita D. Tamma et al.

Summary: The Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) has provided updated guidance on the treatment of antimicrobial-resistant infections, focusing on treating AmpC-producing Enterobacterales, carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia infections. The guidance is based on clinical experience, expert opinion, and a review of available literature, as published data on optimal treatment options are limited. This document emphasizes treatment approaches for infections in the United States, considering differences in resistance epidemiology and the availability of specific anti-infectives internationally.

Prevalence of polymyxin-induced nephrotoxicity and its predictors in critically ill adult patients: A meta-analysis

Jiang-Lin Wang et al.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the prevalence and potential predictors of polymyxin-induced nephrotoxicity in adult ICU patients. The results showed a high incidence of polymyxin-induced nephrotoxicity, and factors such as dosing interval, nephrotoxicity criteria, age, publication year, study quality, and sample size were significantly associated with nephrotoxicity.
