Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare the rate of therapeutic failure and emergence of resistance in critically ill patients treated by third-generation cephalosporins (3GCs) or piperacillin-tazobactam (PTZ) for wild-type AmpC-producing Enterobacteriaceae pulmonary infections.
