Population biology of Gram-positive pathogens: high-risk clones for dissemination of antibiotic resistance.

FEMS microbiology reviews - 1 Sept 2011

Willems Rob J L, Hanage William P, Bessen Debra E, Feil Edward J

Abstract excerpt

Infections caused by multiresistant Gram-positive bacteria represent a major health burden in the community as well as in hospitalized patients. Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium are well-known pathogens of hospitalized patients, frequently linked with resistance against multiple antibiotics, compromising effective therapy. Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus pyogenes...
