Antimicrobial susceptibility of organisms causing community-acquired urinary tract infections in Gauteng Province, South Africa.
BACKGROUND Patients with community-acquired urinary tract infections (UTIs) frequently present to healthcare facilities in South Africa (SA). AIM To provide information on UTI aetiology and antimicrobial susceptibility of pathogens. METHODS We recruited women with UTI-related symptoms, who tested positive for ≥2 urine dipstick criteria (proteinuria, blood, leucocytes or nitrites) at 1 publi...
متن کاملAntimicrobial resistance development following surgical site infections
Surgical site infections (SSIs) determine an increase in hospitalization time and antibiotic therapy costs. The aim of this study was to identify the germs involved in SSIs in patients from the Clinical Emergency County Hospital of Craiova (SCJUC) and to assess their resistance to antimicrobials, with comparisons between surgical wards and the intensive care unit (ICU). The biological samples w...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern of Escherichia Coli Isolates Causing Urinary Tract Infections at Tertiary Care Hospital
Escherichia coli is the most common organism causing both community as well as hospital acquired UTI. The antibiotic resistance has increased over the past many years. Hence we aimed to assess the current antibiotic resistance pattern in the common uropathogen E.coli from urine samples from in and out patients at VIMS, Bellary, presenting with UTI. Mid-stream urine samples were processed for ro...
متن کاملInstitution of The Steiros Algorithm(®) Outpatient Surgical Protocol reduced orthopedic surgical site infections (SSI) rates.
BACKGROUND Control of surgical site infections (SSI) is imperative for the safety of our patients. As orthopedic surgeons we strive to have the lowest infection rate possible for all our surgical procedures. this study evaluates the effects of a simple outpatient peri-operative patient cleaning protocol (The Steiros Algorithm(®) Outpatient Surgery Protocol) on SSI rates. METHODS We retrospect...
متن کاملPattern of pathogens from surgical wound infections in a Nigerian hospital and their antimicrobial susceptibility profiles.
BACKGROUND In surgical patients, infection is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. A prospective study to find the pattern of microorganisms responsible for post operative wound infections and their antibiotic susceptibility profile was therefore conducted. SETTING AND METHODS Surgical wards in Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital Complex, Ile-Ife, Nigeria. Isolation, identi...
