Zusammenfassung

Eine zunehmende Bedrohung in der Medizin geht von Keimen aus, die gegen eine Vielzahl der verfügbaren Antibiotika resistent sind. Die wichtigsten multiresistenten Erreger (MRE) sind methicillinresistente S. aureus (MRSA), vancomycinresistente MRSA (VMRSA), vancomycinresistente Enterokokken (VRE), und Enterobacteriaceae mit „extented spectrum beta lactamase“ (ESBL). Insbesondere für MRSA und VRE sind Infektionen in allen Bereichen der Augenheilkunde möglich. Am häufigsten sind die Lider, die Tränenwege und die Augenoberfläche betroffen.

Abstract

Multidrug-resistant bacteria have emerged as an increasing threat in many areas of medicine. The most prominent multidrug-resistant pathogens are methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant MRSA (VMRSA), vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), and Enterobacteriaceae with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL). In particular, MRSA and VRE cause infections seen in ophthalmology. The lids, lacrimal duct, and ocular surface are frequently involved.
