A Retrospective Case Series of Concomitant Carbapenem and Valproic Acid Use: Are Best Practice Advisories Working?

Andrew J. Fratoni et al.

Summary: This study assessed the efficacy of a Best Practice Advisory (BPA) in avoiding simultaneous use of carbapenems and valproic acid (VPA), and provided information on the use of these drugs, clinical implications, and potential alternative treatments. The study found that co-prescribing of carbapenems and VPA was rare, but the BPA was ineffective in 63% of cases.

Effect of restricting piperacillin/tazobactam prescription on rates of antimicrobial resistance in gram-negative bacteria and antibiotic consumption

Jihyu Oh et al.

Summary: This study investigated the changes in antibiotic consumption and antimicrobial resistance rates after restricting piperacillin/tazobactam. The results showed a significant decrease in the consumption of piperacillin/tazobactam after implementing the restriction policy. Additionally, the resistance rates of Acinetobacter spp. and other bacteria decreased significantly, indicating a positive impact of piperacillin/tazobactam restriction on controlling bacterial resistance.

Summary: This study investigated hospital-acquired bloodstream infections (HA-BSI) in 2600 adult patients from 333 ICUs in 52 countries. HA-BSI were frequently caused by Gram-negative, carbapenem-resistant, and difficult-to-treat pathogens. Antimicrobial resistance led to delays in adequate antimicrobial therapy, resulting in high mortality rates.

Tigecycline antibacterial activity, clinical effectiveness, and mechanisms and epidemiology of resistance: narrative review

Sajad Yaghoubi et al.

Summary: Tigecycline is a unique semisynthetic antimicrobial agent developed to treat polymicrobial infections caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens. By adding a glycyclamide moiety to the structure of minocycline, tigecycline is able to bypass tetracycline resistance mechanisms. It is currently approved for complicated skin infections, intra-abdominal infections, and community-acquired bacterial pneumonia in adults.

Summary: The study evaluated the activity of aztreonam-avibactam against Enterobacterales isolates from European medical centers and the occurrence of carbapenemases. The results showed that aztreonam-avibactam had high inhibitory activity against Enterobacterales isolates and retained potent activity against resistant strains. The study also found that isolates from the Eastern European and Mediterranean region had lower susceptibility to comparator agents compared to isolates from Western Europe.

Summary: This study assessed the resistance to novel beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations in KPC-producing K. pneumoniae strains isolated from patients with bloodstream infections. The results showed varying resistance rates to different beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations, with IMI-REL being the most effective. Genotypic analysis revealed mutations in the bla(KPC-3) gene in KPC-Kp strains resistant to CAZ-AVI, while strains resistant to CAZ-AVI, MER-VAB, and/or IMI-REL all carried the bla(KPC-3) gene.

Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase Variants Resistant to Ceftazidime-Avibactam: an Evolutionary Overview

Claire Amaris Hobson et al.

Summary: This review describes the mutational landscape of KPC beta-lactamase towards ceftazidime-avibactam resistance, showing that resistance is associated with three hot spots and a high representation of insertions and deletions compared to other beta-lactamases. The extension of resistance to ceftazidime-avibactam is accompanied by a trade-off in resistance to other beta-lactams and a decrease in enzyme stability. The natural stability of KPC could explain its propensity to acquire in vivo mutations conferring resistance to ceftazidime-avibactam.

CON: Testing for ESBL production is unnecessary for ceftriaxone-resistant Enterobacterales

Amy J. Mathers et al.

Summary: Phenotypic testing for Enterobacterales with ESBLs is not additive to accurate beta-lactam MICs for clinical decision-making. ESBL testing is outdated and problematic due to inaccuracies when multiple classes of beta-lactamases are produced by the same organism. Clinical laboratories should focus on accurate susceptibility testing using contemporary interpretative criteria to guide therapeutic decisions.
