Imipenem-relebactam is a novel β-lactam-β-lactamase inhibitor combination. We evaluated the in vitro activity of imipenem-relebactam and comparators against Enterobacterales clinical isolates recovered in 8 Spanish and 11 Portuguese intensive care units (ICUs) (SUPERIOR, 2016-2017; STEP, 2017-2018). Overall, 747 Enterobacterales isolates (378 Escherichia coli, 252 Klebsiella spp., 64 Enterobacter spp., and 53 o...
Ceftolozane-tazobactam (C/T) is frequently used for infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR)-Enterobacterales isolates. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS, Illumina-Hiseq 4000/NovaSeq 6000, OGC, UK) was used to study the population structure, the resistome and the virulome of C/T-susceptible and -resistant MDR Escherichia spp. (n=30) and Klebsiella spp. (n=78) isolates, recovered from lower respiratory, intra-a...
