Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) in Children with Cancer: The Impact of Rapid Diagnostics and Targeted Colonization Strategies on Improving Outcomes

Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) pose an emerging threat, with a high mortality rate among children with cancer. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of routine rectal swab surveillance and rapid PCR-based detection of carbapenemase genes to facilitate the early initiation of appropr...
