recommendations! Published in 2020 at "American Journal of Infection Control"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ajic.2020.06.071

Abstract: Background Increasingly prevalent vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) amongst neonatal and pediatric patients may cause outbreaks and result in infections associated with significant morbidity. We describe a VRE outbreak in our 52-bed neonatal intensive care unit (NICU),… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/femsle/fnac063

Abstract: Daptomycin is a cyclic lipopeptide used in the treatment of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm). However, the development of daptomycin-resistant VREfm challenges the treatment of nosocomial VREfm infections. Resistance mechanisms of daptomycin are not fully understood.… read more here.
