The β-lactamase inhibitor relebactam can restore imipenem activity against imipenem-nonsusceptible gram-negative pathogens. We evaluated imipenem/relebactam for treating infections.Randomized, controlled, double-blind, phase 3 trial. Hospitalized patients with hospital-acquired/ventilator-associated pneumonia, complicated intraabdominal infection, or urinary tract infection caused by (but colistin- and imipenem/relebactam-susceptible) pathogens were randomized 2:1 to 5-21 days...

Patients received either intravenous oral (500 mg once daily) or comparative agents, parenteral (1 2 g twice daily). Erythromycin doxycycline could be added comparator arm at investigator's discretion. The decision use an antimicrobial...
Controversy still exists in the international literature regarding need to use antimicrobials covering atypical pathogens when initially treating hospitalized patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). In different regions of world, monotherapy a beta-lactam antimicrobial is common.We sought correlate incidence CAP due world proportion treated an regimen those same regions. addition, we compare clinical outcomes and without coverage.A secondary analysis was performed using two...
We retrospectively evaluated the charts of 112 patients with diabetic foot infection to determine if early aggressive surgical intervention improves outcome. All were classified into two groups on basis timing and appropriate antimicrobial therapy. Group I included who underwent no during first 3 days hospitalization but received intravenous therapy, group II promptly was further divided; IIA debridement, IIB local limited amputation. A higher rate in than (27.6% vs. 13%, respectively; P <...
