Hi all
Just thought I’d bump this question again, as I didn’t get any responses. Surely someone has an opinion on which gram-negatives need to be managed as MROs?
Thanks

Hi Micheal
We risk assess all patient’s with an ESBL. We are less likely to isolate a e-coli ESBL compared to a Klebsiella ESBL. Also I depends on the patient group being cohorted or allocated within. In lower risk environments such as aged care where we have no evidence of cross infection we do not isolate unless the patient has a urinary catheter in situ.
I think using a risk assessment approach is important as it’s impossible to isolate all patient colonised
