Description

Pranay R Ullengala, Ravindra V Shinde, and Satish R Patil review hard-to-treat Acinetobacter infections in Indian hospital care in a 2026 article. These hospital germs shrug off carbapenems, a last-line drug class, mainly by making enzymes of the OXA type. Lung infections on breathing machines and blood infections carry heavy death rates with such strains.

The review covers how the germs cause disease, how labs detect the resistance with standard bench tests, and why results can mislead. Outcomes in Indian intensive care units get close attention. Treatment talk stresses drug mixes tailored to each case and a newer pairing, sulbactam-durlobactam, built for these infections. Sound detection plus targeted therapy frame the message.
