Health officials have linked an outbreak of bacterial infection found in nine Alabama hospital patients who died to contamination at a laboratory. SOURCE
Misuse of antibiotics has led to a global health threat: the rise of dangerous—or even fatal—superbugs. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is now attacking both patients in hospitals and also in the community and a deadly new multi-drug resistant bacteria called carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae, or CRKP is now in the headlines. Last year, antibiotic resistant infections killed 25,000 people in Europe, the Guardian reports.

Such has happened to the protocol I developed in 1993.
DALLAS, April 6 (UPI) -- A study of Veterans Administration's acute care facilities indicates increased use of carbapenems, a powerful class of antibiotics, U.S. researchers say.On a similar topic of increased use of drugs at the VA and in civilian medicine, this is worth your consideration as well -
Dr. Makoto Jones and colleagues used barcode medication administration data for antibiotics administered in 110 VA acute care facilities from 2005 to 2009.
In the five-year study period, there was a gradual increase in overall antibiotic use and a 102 percent increase in the use of carbapenems -- a powerful class of "last resort" antibiotics. The study found a 79 percent increase in the use of intravenous vancomycin and 41 percent increase combinations of penicillin with beta-lactamase-inhibitors. A 20 percent increase in fluoroquinolones* were the most frequently used drugs across facilities.
Additionally, the researchers noted the quantity of antibiotics reported from VA facilities seems similar to reported data from non-VA hospitals in the United States.
"Use of these antibiotics helps the patient receiving the treatment, but has future consequences for innocent bystanders," Jones says in a statement.
"The more these drugs are used, the more resistance we see."
The study was presented at the annual meeting of the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America in Dallas.
