In vitro pharmacodynamics of colistin against multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae.
BACKGROUND Resistance to colistin is emerging in multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria and no solid pharmacodynamic data are available for colistin against Klebsiella pneumoniae. METHODS Twenty-one multidrug-resistant clinical K. pneumoniae isolates from 16 different clinical sites worldwide were employed. The genetic relatedness of these isolates was examined with PFGE. In vitro pharmac...
متن کاملCefoxitin Activity Against Multiply Antibiotic-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae In Vitro
Due to the emergence of cephalothinand gentamicin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae at this institution, we investigated the in vitro activity of two new cephalosporin compounds-cefoxitin and cefamandole. Whereas both drugs were active against cephalothinand gentamicin-susceptible isolates ofKlebsiella, only cefoxitin exhibited significant activity against cephalothinand gentamicin-resistant isol...
متن کاملIn vitro pharmacodynamics of various antibiotics in combination against extensively drug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae.
Extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae is an emerging pathogen in Singapore. With limited therapeutic options available, combination antibiotics may be the only viable option. In this study, we aimed to elucidate effective antibiotic combinations against XDR K. pneumoniae isolates. Six NDM-1-producing and two OXA-181-producing K. pneumoniae strains were exposed to 12 antibiotics...
متن کاملEvaluation and Identification of Carbapenem Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolated from Hospitalized Patients in Qom City, (Iran)
Background and Objectives: Klebsiella pneumonia is a facultative anaerobe bacterium from enterobacteriaceae family, which causes a wide range of diseases, such as urinary tract infections, cystitis, pneumonia, surgical wounds infections, infectious endocarditis, and diffused infections, especially in patients with HIV infection and immunosuppression. The aim of this study was to identify carbap...
متن کاملLimiting and controlling carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae
Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) is resistant to almost all antimicrobial agents, is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, and poses a serious threat to public health. The ongoing worldwide spread of this pathogen emphasizes the need for immediate intervention. This article reviews the global spread and risk factors for CRKP colonization/infection, and provides a...
