Cefiderocol in Combating Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii: Action and Resistance
6 Nov 2024
Abstract excerpt
Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) has emerged as a prominent multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogen, significantly complicating treatment strategies due to its formidable resistance mechanisms, particularly against carbapenems. Reduced membrane permeability, active antibiotic efflux, and enzymatic hydrolysis via different β-lactamases are the main resistance mechanisms displayed by A. baumannii, and they are all...
