Abstract
Background Carbapenemases are the most frequent mechanism of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacteriaceae. However, alternative mechanisms such as loss of porin channels or up-regulation of efflux pumps can cause intermediate- to high-level resistance to ertapenem (ERTA) and possibly reduced susceptibilities to meropenem (MERO) leading to discordant phenotypic profiles. Clinical implications of discordant carbapenem susceptibilities and optimal...
