Carbapenem-resistant and hypervirulent (CR-hvKp) strains have emerged while antimicrobial treatment options remain limited. Herein, we tested the activity of ceftazidime-avibactam and other comparator antibiotics against 65 CR-hvKp isolates. Ceftazidime-avibactam, colistin, and tigecycline are highly active against CR-hvKp isolates (MIC, ≤1 μg/ml), including carbapenemase 2 (KPC-2)-producing ST11 CR-hvKp. On the basis of previous clinical experience and the data presented herein, we posit that ceftazidime-avibactam is a therapeutic option against CR-hvKp infections.
耐碳青霉烯和超毒力 (CR-hvKp) 菌株的出现,而抗菌治疗选择仍然有限。在此,我们测试了头孢他啶-阿维巴坦和其他比较抗生素对 65 株耐碳青霉烯和超毒力 (CR-hvKp) 分离株的活性。头孢他啶-阿维巴坦、黏菌素和替加环素对 CR-hvKp 分离株具有高度活性(MIC,≤1μg/ml),包括产碳青霉烯酶 2 (KPC-2)的 ST11 CR-hvKp。基于先前的临床经验和本文提供的数据,我们假设头孢他啶-阿维巴坦是治疗 CR-hvKp 感染的一种治疗选择。
