Carbapenem-Resistant Infections in Neonates and Children in Latin America: A Literature Review.
Carbapenems are broad-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotics that are increasingly being used worldwide to treat multidrug-resistant infections, but since their introduction, carbapenem resistance has emerged. This phenomenon has been well documented in the adult population, but there is a paucity of evidence from the neonatal and pediatric populations. A literature search of carbapenem-resistant infections in Latin American neonates and children was conducted via PubMed/Medline and SCOPUS: 551 titles were screened, and 17 articles were included in the review. The most commonly reported predominant isolate was Klebsiella pneumoniae (11 of 17 studies). Genotypic data were available in 10 of 17 studies, and the KPC gene was the most commonly reported resistance gene. The mortality rate ranged from 13% to 52.6%. Carbapenem-resistant infections are prevalent in children and neonates in Latin America and are associated with high rates of mortality, highlighting the need for enhanced antimicrobial stewardship and surveillance within these populations.
期刊介绍：
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, established in 1921, is published monthly by the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. It is among the top-ranked tropical medicine journals in the world publishing original scientific articles and the latest science covering new research with an emphasis on population, clinical and laboratory science and the application of technology in the fields of tropical medicine, parasitology, immunology, infectious diseases, epidemiology, basic and molecular biology, virology and international medicine.
The Journal publishes unsolicited peer-reviewed manuscripts, review articles, short reports, images in Clinical Tropical Medicine, case studies, reports on the efficacy of new drugs and methods of treatment, prevention and control methodologies,new testing methods and equipment, book reports and Letters to the Editor. Topics range from applied epidemiology in such relevant areas as AIDS to the molecular biology of vaccine development.
The Journal is of interest to epidemiologists, parasitologists, virologists, clinicians, entomologists and public health officials who are concerned with health issues of the tropics, developing nations and emerging infectious diseases. Major granting institutions including philanthropic and governmental institutions active in the public health field, and medical and scientific libraries throughout the world purchase the Journal.
Two or more supplements to the Journal on topics of special interest are published annually. These supplements represent comprehensive and multidisciplinary discussions of issues of concern to tropical disease specialists and health issues of developing countries
