Genomic epidemiology of emerging ESBL-producing Kentucky in Europe.
travel history. Next to multiple introductions of the clone to Europe from Egypt, our analysis suggests that in some parts of Europe the clone might have formed a stable population, from which further ...
Attributable deaths and disability-adjusted life-years caused by infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the EU and the European Economic Area in 2015: a population-level modelling analysis
Infections due to antibiotic-resistant bacteria are threatening modern health care. However, estimating their incidence, complications, and attributable mortality is challenging. We aimed to estimate the ...
Genetic Basis and Clonal Population Structure of Antibiotic Resistance in Isolated From Broiler Carcasses in Belgium.
Front Microbiol, Volume 9 (2018) Abstract: Human campylobacteriosis is the leading food-borne zoonosis in industrialized countries. This study characterized the clonal population structure, antimicrobial ...
Antimicrobial resistance surveillance in Escherichia coli by using normalized resistance interpretation.
NRI with previously established optimal controlled parameters for E. coli ATCC25922 was used to reconstruct the fully susceptible population of the tested E. coli isolates. Based on a lower limit for ...
Poor adherence to guidelines for preventing central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI): results of a worldwide survey.
following the SHEA guidelines as a standard. We computed weighted estimates for high, middle and low-income countries using country population as a weight. Only countries providing at least 10 complete ...
Infection due to travel-related carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae, a largely underestimated phenomenon in Belgium.
Sensitivity Tests Needs Assessment Risk Assessment Travel Abstract: BACKGROUND: Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) are emerging worldwide, representing a major threat for public health. Early CPE ...
Epidemiology of Clostridium difficile infection in Belgium: Report 2014
a more frail and older patient population, increased use of antibiotics that trigger the infection, and the emergence of virulent strains. This report summarises the different sources of data available to ...
Epidémiologie des infections à Clostridium difficile en Belgique: Rapport 2014
augmentation a été attribuée à de multiples facteurs: une augmentation de l’utilisation de certains antibiotiques, une augmentation de la population présentant des facteurs de risque (les personnes âgées), et ...
Preventable proportion of severe infections acquired in intensive care units: case-mix adjusted estimations from patient-based surveillance data.
middle aged Pneumonia, Ventilator-Associated Population Surveillance Risk Factors Sepsis Abstract: BACKGROUND: More than 10% of patients admitted to intensive care units (ICU s) experience a severe, ...
Prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia in intensive care units: an international online survey.
a measurement system. Weighted estimations for Europe were computed based on countries for which at least 10 completed replies were available, using total country population as a weight. Data from other countries ...
