Molecular profiling of vancomycin-resistant enterococci isolated from bloodstream infections by enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus-polymerase chain reaction: A prospective cross-sectional study from Northeast India.

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Enterococcus spp. Has emerged as a significant cause of bacteremia, often leading to severe complications such as Infective Endocarditis. The rise of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci (VRE) poses a critical challenge in treating Enterococcal bacteremia, particularly in hospital settings. This study aims to conduct molecular characterization and genotyping of VRE strains isolated from blood samples in a...
