Background: The aim of this study is to determine the in vitro activity of ceftazidime-avibactam (CZA) on Entero-bacteriaceae and P. aeruginosa strains isolated in the bacteriology-virology laboratory of the Ibn Rochd University of Casablanca.
Methods: This is a prospective descriptive longitudinal study conducted from May 28 through June 25, 2022, on Enterobacteriaceae and P.
Background: Invasive fungal infections (IFIs) contribute to significant morbidity and mortality among patients with haemato-oncological conditions, seriously ill hospitalised patients and those in intensive care (ICU). We surveyed for the World Health Organization-recommended essential diagnostic tests for IFIs in these risk groups in Africa.
Methods: The Global Action For Fungal Infections (GAFFI) evaluated the different levels of access to both diagnostics for IFIs for populations in Africa, with the aim of building a comparative dataset and a publicly available interactive map.
Background: In order to determine domains with the most difficulties and plan a relevant training, the aim of this study was to assess training needs of medical biology residents at the Ibn Rochd University Hospital of Casablanca, concerning antibiograms interpretation.
Methods: A descriptive and comparative study was carried out in February 2022, with two resident groups. The first one included all residents in training in the bacteriology-virology laboratory and having spent at least 2 months.
Background: The aim is to determine the prevalence of bacterial nosocomial infections (NI) and its associated factors in COVID-19 ICU.
Methods: A descriptive retrospective study, from April to August 2020, was carried on patients with respiratory distress following SARS-Cov-2 infection presenting a sign of bacterial infection.
Results: A total of 29 patients (33% of hospitalized patients) contracted a NI, their age was 65 years ± 13.

Introduction: The Ibn Rochd CHU is a tertiary care structure that provides care for the most severe cases of COVID-19 requiring hospitalisation in intensive care. The objective of study is to describe the complementary medical and psychological care of patients with COVID-19 in the endocrinology department after a stay in intensive care.
Patients And Methods: This is a descriptive observational study of patients transferred from the intensive care unit to the endocrinology service following a COVID-19 infection during the period from 17 April 2020 to May 26, 2020.
Introduction: The nutritional diagnosis and early nutritional management of COVID-19 patients must be integrated into the overall therapeutic strategy. The aim of our study is to assess the nutritional status of patients with COVID-19 after a stay in intensive care, to describe the prevalence of undernutrition, to determine the factors influencing undernutrition and to describe the nutritional management.
Tools And Methods: This is a descriptive observational study of adult patients admitted to the endocrinology service for additional care after a stay in intensive care during the period from April 17, 2020 to May 26, 2020.
Background: Leishmaniases are vector-borne diseases caused by the protozoa of the Leishmania genus. The clinical spectrum of these diseases extends from benign dermal lesions to visceral forms. In the Mediterranean region, zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis (ZVL) is caused by L.
