During the last 20 years there has emerged a growing world-wide problem with regard to multidrug-resistant microbes. The most serious examples so far are vancomycin-resistant strains of Enterococcus faecium, totally resistant isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and multiple-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae. With the exception of some few strains of methicillin-resistant S. aureus and vancomycin-resistant enterococci, such bacteria have not been found in Norway. In this article we discuss possible ways of preventing further selection and spread of multiple-resistant microbes. We stress the importance of infection control programmes and restrictive use of antibiotics.
