Article Synopsis
- The study aims to assess the effectiveness of cefiderocol and other antibiotics against multi-drug resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria, especially carbapenem-resistant strains, in Spain and Portugal.
- A total of 477 clinical isolates were evaluated, with susceptibility testing revealing that cefiderocol was highly effective, showing 99.5% susceptibility against Enterobacterales and excellent performance against other pathogens like Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia.
- The findings support previous research indicating that cefiderocol is a promising treatment option for infections caused by MDR Gram-negative bacteria, providing an alternative to existing antibiotics.
