Abstract
Background: Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae are associated with serious antimicrobial-resistant infections in Canadians. Humans are exposed to ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae through many interconnected pathways. To better protect Canadians, it is important to generate an understanding of which sources and activities contribute most to ESBL exposure and infection pathways in Canada.
Objective: The aims of this scoping review were to thematically describe factors potentially associated with ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae colonization, carriage and/or infection in humans from countries with a very high human development index and describe the study characteristics.
Methods: Four databases (PubMed, CAB Direct, Web of Science, EBSCOhost) were searched to retrieve potentially relevant studies. Articles were screened for inclusion, and factors were identified, grouped thematically and described.
Results: The review identified 381 relevant articles. Factors were grouped into 13 themes: antimicrobial use, animals, comorbidities and symptoms, community, demographics, diet and substance use, health care, household, occupation, prior ESBL colonization/carriage/infection, residential care, travel, and other. The most common themes reported were demographics, health care, antibiotic use and comorbidities and symptoms. Most articles reported factors in hospital settings (86%) and evaluated factors for ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae infections (52%).
Conclusion: This scoping review provided valuable information about which factor themes have been well described (e.g., health care) and which have been explored less frequently (e.g., diet or animal contact). Themes identified spanned human, animal and environmental contexts and settings, supporting the need for a diversity of perspectives and a multisectoral approach to mitigating exposure to antimicrobial resistance.
