Extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli and klebsiella pneumoniae in diabetic foot infection.
AIMS Diabetic foot lesions are a major medical, social, and economic problem and are the leading cause of hospitalization for patients with diabetes, worldwide. ESBL-producing bacteria may not be detectable by routine disc diffusion susceptibility test, leading to inappropriate use of antibiotics and treatment failure. There is not much information on ESBL-producing organisms causing diabetic f...
متن کاملHigh Prevalence of CTXM-15 Type Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase Among Clinical Isolates of Klebsiella Pneumoniae
Background: Production of β–lactamases by enterobacteriacea, especially Klebsiella pneumoniae, is one of the emerging health problems in the world. The purpose of this study was to assess the frequency of blaCTX-M15 gene in K. pneumoniae isolates and determine the molecular diversity of CTXM producing isolates. Methods: In...
متن کاملRisk factors and outcome in extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteremia.
Given our interest in the epidemiology of nosocomial infection, and the impact of multidrug resistance, I read with great interest the study by Dr. Memon et al1 regarding risk factors and mortality associated with bacteremia caused by extended-spectrum ß-lactamase producing (ESBL) Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia. In this study, the only variable identified as a significant risk factor...
متن کاملThe Prevalence of TEM and SHV Genes among Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases Producing Escherichia Coli and Klebsiella Pneumoniae
Objective(s) Production of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) by enteric bacteria continues to be a major problem in hospitals and community. ESBLs producing bacteria cause many serious infections including urinary tract infections, peritonitis, cholangitis and intra-abdominal abscess. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of ESBLs producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiel...
