Microbiology of cardiac implantable electronic device infections.

TL;DR: Cardiac implantable electronic device infection is more often monomicrobial, CoNS are most frequently isolated and S. aureus is largely the main single agent, although oxacillin resistance and quinolones resistance has increased in the last 5 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synergistic activity of colistin plus rifampin against colistin-resistant kpc-producing klebsiella pneumoniae

TL;DR: Colistin-rifampin combinations may have a role in the treatment of multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae and may possibly slow the selection of heteroresistant subpopulations during colistin therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time to appropriate antibiotic therapy is a predictor of outcome in patients with bloodstream infection caused by KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae.

TL;DR: Time to appropriate antibiotic therapy is an independent predictor of 30-day mortality in patients with KPC-Kp BSI and receipt of an in vitro active therapy within 24 h from BC collection was associated with lower 30- day mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictors of hospital-acquired bacterial and fungal superinfections in COVID-19: a prospective observational study.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify predictors of superinfections in COVID-19 patients, defined as a bacterial or fungal infection that occurred ≥48 h after hospital admission.
