Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the treatment outcomes in patients with CRE infections.
Detailed Description:
Antibiotic resistance is one of the major problems because of global burden. Resistant pathogens are non-susceptible to available antibiotics, causing of high clinical mortality (clinical impact) and high budget (economic impact), whereas new antibiotics in drug development are fewer. Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are categorized into one of the critical groups in World Health Organization's lists. In Thailand, the spread of CRE have been risen continuously since 2011.
Diverse actions are designed to address antibiotic resistance with limited resources, known as antimicrobial stewardship programs (ASPs). Dose-optimization by using PK/PD (Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics) application is recommendation of supplemental strategies in clinical routine practice. The benefit of the strategy is to reduce inappropriate antibiotic use and provide minimum resistance as well as maximum the success of clinical treatment.
Antibiotic combination regimens have a role for the CRE treatment. However, current evidence in clinical study is not concluded which the best or optimal combined antibiotics are. The reasons may be that combined antibiotics often vary among different sites of infection, causative pathogens, the patterns of local antimicrobial susceptibility and patient comorbidity. As the results, the antibiotic combination regimens for the treatment any infections caused by CRE is needed for further investigation. The anticipated result is to fill the limited data of the appropriate antibiotic regimens for individual Thai patients.
