Vancomycin-resistant enterococci. Mechanism and clinical relevance

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America
George Eliopoulos

Abstract

Vancomycin-resistant enterococci have spread widely throughout the United States. Mechanisms of glycopeptide resistance are understood to a significant extent. These organisms are associated with considerable morbidity. Treatment options are limited, and control of their spread requires considerable effort and results in increased costs.

Allergy & Infectious Diseases

Allergies result from the hyperreactivity of the immune system to some environmental substance and can be life-threatening. Infectious diseases are caused by organisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. They can be transmitted different ways, such as person-to-person. Here is the latest research on allergy and infectious diseases.

Antimicrobial Resistance (ASM)

Antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to the continued successful use of antimicrobial agents for the treatment of bacterial infections.
