Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patients must be more than or equal to 18 years of age, both males and females. Patients have a confirmed diagnosis (blood culture positive) of bloodstream infection (BSI) requiring administration of intravenous (IV) antibacterial therapy. Patients must have an MBL-positive Enterobacterales (for which the imipenem or meropenem minimum inhibitory concentrations is reported as more than or equal to 4 mg/L) isolated from blood within 48 hours prior to enrolment. Patient admitted in ICU. In the case of mixed infection, the patient was allowed to participate in the study if the species were deemed susceptible to Ceftazidime-avibactam + Aztreonam combination (CAZ-AVI + ATM) or the investigator considered that the additional species were colonizers which did not warrant specific treatment.
