TL;DR: A review of the literature that can be used for evidence-based guidelines to limit the spread of C. difficile is provided, including early diagnosis of CDAD, surveillance ofCDAD cases, education of staff, appropriate use of isolation precautions, hand hygiene, protective clothing, environmental cleaning and cleaning of medical equipment, good antibiotic stewardship, and specific measures during outbreaks.

TL;DR: Ongoing epidemiological surveillance of cases of CDI, with periodic characterisation of the strains involved, is required to detect clustering of cases in time and space and to monitor the emergence of new, highly virulent clones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Results from the ARTEMIS DISK Global Antifungal Surveillance Study: a 6.5-Year Analysis of Susceptibilities of Candida and Other Yeast Species to Fluconazole and Voriconazole by Standardized Disk Diffusion Testing
M. A. Pfaller,Daniel J. Diekema,M. Rinaldi,Rosemary Ann Barnes,B. Hu,A. V. Veselov,N. Tiraboschi,Elisabeth Nagy,D. L. Gibbs +8 more
TL;DR: The results from this investigation demonstrate the broad spectrum of the azoles for most of the opportunistic yeast pathogens but also highlight several areas where resistance may be progressing and/or where previously rare species may be“ emerging.”
Journal ArticleDOI
Candida krusei, a Multidrug-Resistant Opportunistic Fungal Pathogen: Geographic and Temporal Trends from the ARTEMIS DISK Antifungal Surveillance Program, 2001 to 2005
M. A. Pfaller,Daniel J. Diekema,D. L. Gibbs,V. A. Newell,Elisabeth Nagy,S. Dobiasova,Michael G. Rinaldi,Richard C. Barton,A. V. Veselov +8 more
TL;DR: Among the systemically active antifungal agents, the echinocandins appear to be the most active against this important pathogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial susceptibility of Bacteroides fragilis group isolates in Europe: 20 years of experience
TL;DR: In this article, the susceptibilities of 824 Bacteroides fragilis group isolates against nine antibiotics were evaluated in a Europe-wide study involving 13 countries, and the lowest resistances were found for imipenem, metronidazole and tigecycline (1.2%, <1% and 1.7%).
