Stop Cephalosporin Failure: Enterobacterales Explained

Third-generation cephalosporins may appear active in vitro — yet clinical failure can occur in serious Enterobacterales infections. Why? This MD-level session explains inducible AmpC β-lactamase, ESBL production, carbapenemase mechanisms, and the laboratory principles behind accurate antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST). Learn the four-tier antimicrobial classification strategy, cascade reporting, surrogate testing in UTI isolates, and when to avoid cephalosporins despite apparent susceptibility. Designed for MD Microbiology theory, viva, and practical exams, this video provides a structured, guideline-based framework to prevent therapeutic failure and promote antimicrobial stewardship in Enterobacterales infections.
