Abstract
The prospective epidemiological survey carried out in our study gave a glimpse of the plasmid-mediated colistin resistance dissemination in Romagna. Since the prevalence rate of carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) in some hospital wards in our area is alarming, we underline the importance of a Surveillance Program to monitor the spread of the plasmid-mediated colistin resistance genes into MDR Gram-negative bacteria.
