Enterococcal bacteremia in febrile neutropenic children and adolescents with underlying malignancies, and clinical impact of vancomycin resistance
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Infection"
DOI: 10.1007/s15010-018-1260-z
Abstract: PurposeEnterococci are a common cause of bacteremia in immunocompromised patients. Although the increase of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) makes appropriate antibiotic therapy difficult, clinical characteristics of enterococcal bacteremia and the impact of VRE infection on outcomes… read more here.
