简要总结
The use of carbapenems, very broad spectrum antibiotics of last resort, is becoming more common due to the increased prevalence in the hospital and community of extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing gram-negative bacilli (GNB), including CTX-M type, which are resistant to all other β-lactam antibiotics. Meanwhile, it creates a selective pressure towards emergence of strains which are also resistant to carbapenems, placing patients in a catastrophic situation of therapeutic dead-end. A better understanding of the mechanisms of emergence of BGN resistant to carbapenems is necessary to optimize their use and undertake preventive measures to preserve their effectiveness. The aim of the study is to evaluate and describe the emergence of carbapenem-induced resistant GNB in patient intestinal microflora.

A better understanding of the mechanisms of emergence of BGN resistant to carbapenems is necessary to optimize their use and undertake preventive measures to preserve their effectiveness.
Hypotheses: Carbapenems induce in treated patients the emergence of resistant GNB in intestinal flora and have an impact on colonization resistance of the gut microbiota.
Primary objective: To determine the frequency of emergence of carbapenems resistant GNB in the intestinal flora at the end of a treatment by imipenem or ertapenem.
Secondary objective(s):
- Assess the presence of carbapenem resistant GNB in the intestinal flora before treatment.
- Evaluate the presence and / or persistence of carbapenem resistant GNB in the intestinal flora on day 3 of treatment, and 15 days and 1 month after the end of treatment.
- Determine the molecular mechanisms of resistance of strains of interest.
- Describe the gastrointestinal tract colonization by non-commensal microorganisms before and after treatment (impact on colonization resistance).
- Describe the characteristics of patients with emergence of resistance compared to patients who do not.
- Proper conservation of stool of 10 patients for metagenomic and/or metatranscriptomic analysis of changes in the intestinal flora.
