Abstract:
Enterobacterales are important pathogens responsible for healthcare-associated infections and can cause various severe infectious diseases.Since their first report,extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobactera-les(ESBL-E)have become widely prevalent worldwide.These strains often exhibit multidrug resistance,signifi-cantly increase the risk of treatment failure and patient mortality.In China,the prevention and control of ESBL-E faces numerous challenges,including high prevalence rates,significant regional distribution disparities,uneven la-boratory detection capabilities,and variations in antimicrobial stewardship and prescribing practices.To address these issues,Professors Zhuo Chao,Xu Yingchun and Yu Yunsong initiated the development of the Expert consen-sus on clinical management strategies for infections caused by extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Ente-robacterales(2025),in collaboration with multidisciplinary experts.This consensus systematically reviews the global and domestic epidemiological characteristics of ESBL-E,clinical laboratory detection techniques,treatment principles and key therapeutic agents,as well as infection prevention and control measures.Furthermore,it elabo-rates on the microbiological features and stratified treatment strategies for infections of different sources(including bloodstream,intracranial,respiratory system,thoracic mediastinal,intra-abdominal,and urinary tract infections)and special populations(such as neutropenic patients with fever,emergency patients,and pediatric patients).The consensus aims to enhance the detection capacity of clinical laboratories for ESBL-E,standardize diagnosis and treat-ment strategies in healthcare settings,and provide scientific guidance to curb the spread of ESBL-E in China,there-by reducing associated morbidity and mortality.
