Zusammenfassung

Multiresistente Erreger (MRE) nehmen weltweit zu. Die häufigsten MRE sind methicillinresistente S. aureus, gefolgt von vancomycinresistenten Enterokokken und ESBL (Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase)-bildenden Erregern. Letztere spielen in der Augenheilkunde bisher keine große Rolle. MRE können schwere Infektionen verursachen und sind bei der empirischen Therapie nosokomialer Infektionen zu bedenken. Um die weitere Ausbreitung zu vermeiden, müssen Standard- und spezielle Hygienemaßnahmen eingehalten und ein gezieltes Antibiotikamanagement durchgeführt werden.

Abstract

Multidrug-resistant organisms (MROs) are increasing all over the world. The most important MROs are methicillin-resistant S. aureus, followed by vancomycin-resistant enterococci and extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing bacteria. The latter are not yet of much importance in ophthalmology. MROs can cause serious infections and must be considered in empiric therapy of nosocomial infections. To prevent further spread, standard and contact precautions have to be followed, and antibiotic stewardship needs to be introduced.
