Journal ArticleDOI
High-level vancomycin-resistant enterococci causing hospital infections.
AnneH.C. Uttley,R C George,Jay Naidoo,Neil Woodford,Alan P. Johnson,C H Collins,Donald Morrison,A Gilfillan,L E Fitch,J Heptonstall +9 more
TL;DR: Nosocomial infection or colonization due to enterococci with high-level resistance to vancomycin (minimal inhibitory concentrations [MICs] between 64 and > 2000 mg/L) has occurred in 41 patients with renal disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current perspectives on glycopeptide resistance.
TL;DR: Glycopeptide-resistant enterococci have emerged as a particular problem in hospitals, where in addition to sporadic cases, clusters of infections with evidence of interpatient spread have occurred.
Journal ArticleDOI
Outbreak of infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa producing VIM-1 carbapenemase in Greece.
Athanassios Tsakris,Spyros Pournaras,Neil Woodford,Marie-France I. Palepou,Gioia S. Babini,J. Douboyas,David M. Livermore +6 more
TL;DR: Resistance to imipenem and meropenem was observed in 211 isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa recovered in a Greek university hospital during 1996 to 1998 and high-level resistance to both carbapenems was associated with production of the class B β-lactamase VIM-1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Activity of aminoglycosides, including ACHN-490, against carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolates
David M. Livermore,Shazad Mushtaq,Marina Warner,Jiancheng Zhang,Sunil Maharjan,Michel Doumith,Neil Woodford +6 more
TL;DR: ACHn-490 has potent activity versus carbapenem-resistant isolates, except those also harbouring 16S rRNA methylases; isepamicin is also widely active, though less potent than ACHN-490.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotic resistance among clinical isolates of Acinetobacter in the UK, and in vitro evaluation of tigecycline (GAR-936)
Caroline J. Henwood,Tess Gatward,Marina Warner,Dorothy James,Mark W. Stockdale,Richard P. Spence,Kevin J. Towner,David M. Livermore,Neil Woodford +8 more
TL;DR: Carbapenems, colistin and minocycline retained greatest activity against the Acinetobacter isolates collected, and Tigecycline was less active than minocy cline, but both agents overcame most tetracycline resistance.
