| Popis: | Purpose Patients receiving colistin for carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria (CR-GNB) infections generally have multiple risk factors for nephrotoxicity, so it might be possible that colistin may be erroneously blamed for the nephrotoxicity. Materials and methods We retrospectively analyzed case records of patients who received colistin and those who received antibiotics other than colistin [carbapenem or β-lactam–β-lactamases inhibitors (βL–βLI)] for gram-negative bacteremia. Those patients with preexisting renal failure and those who received antibiotics for |
