Evaluation Report of the Colistin Broth Disk Elution Method with Acinetobacter baumannii Isolates from a Low-Resource Setting
ABSTRACT The rapid emergence of drug resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii has put forward the use of colistin as a last-resort treatment for infections with A. baumannii. Empirical colistin use without prior susceptibility testing has been one of the factors that has been promoting drug resistance...
