Characterization of antimicrobial resistance among Gram-‐negative bacteria in Peru: a comprehensive national surveillance Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
Coralith Garcia, Jan Jacobs
Introduction
Globally, Gram--‐negative bacteria (GNB) carry a high morbidity burden, causing the majority of hospital acquired infections and an important number of community acquired infections such as urinary tract infections and enteric infections. In the last decades, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among these pathogens has widely spread, including resistance to third and fourth generation cephalosporins, aminoglycosides and even ...
