  • Title: [Vancomycin-resistant enterococci . Work Group Hospital Infection Epidemiology].
    Author: Endtz HP, van Belkum A, van Duin J.
    Journal: Ned Tijdschr Geneeskd; 1997 Jan 11; 141(2):108-9. PubMed ID: 9036340.
    Abstract:
    Since 1995 patients with infections with vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) have been reported in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. From prevalence studies in the Netherlands at the end of 1995 and the start of 1996, it appeared that 2% of the patients studied in and outside hospitals had VRE. Restrictive antibiotic prescription in human and veterinary medicine is indicated in order to postpone the problem.
