Emergence of VIM-2 metallo-beta-lactamase-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates in a paediatric hospital in Serbia
Apstrakt
Molecular detection and surveillance of the
resistance genes harboured by
Pseudomonas aeruginosa are becoming
increasingly important in assessing and
controlling spread and colonization in
hospitals, and in guiding the antibiotic
treatment of infections. Metallo-blactamase (MBL)-producing P. aeruginosa
strains are slowly but steadily increasing
within hospitals, causing outbreaks and/or
hyperendemic situations in some centres,
mostly in the Far East and the south of
Europe (Queenan & Bush, 2007). The
global dissemination of MBL-producing
P. aeruginosa strains has also reached the
Balkan region (Lepsanovic et al., 2008;
Sardelic et al., 2003). The objective of our
study was to detect and characterize P.
aeruginosa isolates producing MBLs from
the 400-bed paediatric tertiary care
hospital Mother and Child Health Institute
of Serbia ‘Dr Vukan Cupic’
