Use of the Combined Modified Carbapenem Inactivation Method and EDTA-modified Carbapenem Inactivation Method for Detection of Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae Causing Ventilator-associated Respiratory Infections

There is an alarming rise in carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) causing nosocomial infections such as ventilator-associated respiratory infections (VARIs). The use of rapid phenotypic methods for the detection and differentiation of carbapenemases elaborated by these CRE would be helpful...
