Question: 1 / 1820

What organisms do Carbapenems NOT cover?

HNPEK

CAPES

Atypical, VRE, MRSA, C. diff, Stenotrophomonas

Carbapenems do not cover Atypical bacteria, Vancomycin Resistant Enterococcus (VRE), Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA), Clostridium difficile (C. diff), and Stenotrophomonas. A, B, and D are incorrect because Carbapenems do cover HNPEK (Haemophilus, Neisseria, Proteus, E. coli, and Klebsiella), CAPES (Citrobacter, Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas, Enterobacter, and Serratia), and Enterococci/Streptococci, respectively. Therefore, the correct answer is C as it lists organisms that are not covered by Carbapenems.
