Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase Infections in Orthopedic-Related Devices and Prosthetic Joints.
Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae have increasingly become a public health issue in a variety of infections, including urinary tract infections and postoperative infections. The complications that occur due to these organisms in bone, joint, and prosthetic joints have not been well defined. This study reviewed the clinical characteristics, risk factors, and outcomes ...
متن کاملEpidemiology and acquisition of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in a septic orthopedic ward
Wards cohorting infected orthopaedic patients may be particularly prone to transmitting extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E). We analyze their epidemic pattern by performing molecular typing of ESBL-E isolated from patients and healthcare workers (HCW) from our septic ward. Between March 2010 and November 2011, 186 patients were admitted. Among 565 anal swabs, ...
متن کاملExtended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing organisms.
Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs), which hydrolyse extended-spectrum cephalosporins and are inhibited by clavulanic acid, are spreading among Enterobacteriaceae. The CTX-M enzymes are replacing SHV and TEM enzymes as the prevalent type of ESBLs, principally in community-acquired infections caused by Escherichia coli. Associated infectious syndromes include mainly urinary tract infection...
متن کاملBiofilm and Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase Production amongst Uropathogenic Escherichia Coli Isolates at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, Nigeria
Background and Aims: Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are considered major reservoir for genes encoding antimicrobial resistance. The mechanism of resistance and persistence of UPEC has been attributed to the production of biofilm and Extended Beta Lactamase (ESBL). This hospital-based prospective study determined how biofilm and ESBL production facilitate antibacterial resistance amongst ...
متن کاملExtended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL) Producing Enterobacteria in Aquatic Environmental Sources of Bangladesh
Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteria has become a considerable global concern because of their potential dissemination in humans, in domestic animals, wildlife and the environment. The present study aimed to explore the ESBL producing enterobacteria in aquatic sources of Bangladesh as the water may be the potential source of dissemination of this alarming ant...
