Abstract

Multidrug resistance in Gram-negative bacilli is clearly of global concern. The purpose of this chapter is to review the epidemiology of organisms referred to as pan-resistant (PDR) or exhibiting extreme drug resistance (also referred to as extensive drug resistance-XDR). In order to better understand the epidemiology, it is first essential to define what is regarded as PDR or XDR.
