Tematika

Resistance to antibiotics, i.e. to “miracle drugs” once thought to solve the problem of bacterial infections forever is the most serious challenge medicine and public health is facing now and most likely also in the foreseeable future, as well. Due to this problem, we are making steps backwards, i.e. infections once easily treatable may not respond to our current therapies. Practically all bacterial species and every drug can be affected. Nevertheless, there are some “key problems”, i.e. resistant pathogen groups that, either due to their frequency or to the severity of infection they cause represent particularly serious and/or common challenges. In this problem-driven course the most important pathogen groups and resistance types will be covered by discussing specific cases, clinical and epidemiological scenarios.
For each cases the characteristics of the pathogens, drugs in question and possible resistance mechanisms will be discussed, all from the clinician’s perspective: How the problem can be recognised, what are the remaining treatment options, how the problem can be prevented and controlled
