Carbapenem Antibiotic Therapy for VIM Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae Infections (CarbaVim)

December 14, 2023 updated by: University Hospital, Strasbourg, France

Carbapenem Antibiotic Therapy for VIM Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae Infections - A Retrospective Cohort Study

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) infections are emerging infections that pose a therapeutic challenge. These infections mainly occur in patients with prolonged hospitalization and repeated exposure to antibiotics. Certain strains, notably VIM-producing strains, may remain sensitive to carbapenems. CPE VIM strains are rare in France, but represent the main CPE strains in many countries. They are historically the main type of carbapenemases isolated at the Strasbourg University Hospital.

Detailed Description

The circulation of multi-antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains is significant at the Strasbourg University Hospital and the investigators wish to report their local experience in the use of carbapenems in infections with enterobacteria producing carbapenemase type VIM.
