Effective treatment and decolonization of a dog infected with carbapenemase (<scp>VIM</scp>‐2)‐producing <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> using probiotic and photodynamic therapies

Abstract

Combined use of aPDT and probiotics could be a promising therapeutic strategy for treatment of superficial infections produced by carbapenem-resistant bacteria, while avoiding recurrent infection due to intestinal bacterial carriage of these multidrug-resistant pathogens.
