This is a clinical case that many are unaware of: Do you know what causes this injury??

Vancomycin E-test in a sample of wound secretion with Staphylococcus aureus. What’s the MIC value in this example?

The 2024 WHO Bacterial Priority Pathogens List (BPPL) builds on the 2017 list to address current challenges and provide essential guidance for policymakers, national health authorities and others involved in decisions about R&D and investment.

The 2024 BPPL includes 15 families of antibiotic resistant (ABR) pathogens, grouped into critical, high and medium categories of priority for R&D and for public health measures.

The purpose of the BPPL 2024 is to guide resource allocation, guide and promote R&D of novel antibacterial agents and support development of effective strategies to prevent, control and treat infections caused by priority pathogens.

This update addresses only ABR bacterial phenotypes for which there is the greatest unmet need and that result in the highest, most significant public health burden.
