Definition
- Bacteria containing a plasmid that codes for an extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)
- Most common with Escherichia coli and Klebsiella
Classification
- Class A
- Constitutively expressed plasmid
- Most common ESBL in Gram-negative bacteria
- Resistance to 2nd and 3rd generation cephalosporins
- Examples include penicillinase, TEM-1 (common in GNBs), CTX-M, K. pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) family
- Common in E. coli, Klebsiella, and Proteus spp.
- Class B: metallobetalactamases
- Examples include New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase (NDM-1)
- Class C: ampC
- Inducible AmpC gene present in the genome
- Common in Citrobacter, Serratia, and Enterobacter
- Class D: OXA
- Common in Acinetobacter
Management
- Antibiotic therapy tailored to the resistance pattern
- Carbapenems, aminoglycosides, fluoroquinolones, and Septra typically work well
