Cefepime versus carbapenem for treating complicated urinary tract infection caused by cefoxitin-nonsusceptible ESCPM organisms: a multicenter, real-world study
The cefepime and carbapenem had comparable efficacy for treating cUTI caused by cefoxitin-nonsusceptible ESCPM organisms with cefepime MIC ≤ 1 µg/mL, whereas carbapenems are potentially more effective for isolates with cefepime MIC = 2 µg/mL.
