Evaluation of daptomycin-supplemented, antibiotic-loaded bone cement for treating vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis in the Galleria mellonella implant infection model
Objectives and questions: Periprosthetic infections caused by vancomycin-resistant pathogens, such as vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis (VRE), pose a significant clinical challenge. This study aimed to utilize the Galleriamellonella larvae implant infection model to determine the optimal daptomycin [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
