Rapid detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa targeting the toxA gene in intensive care unit patients from Beijing, China
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major opportunistic pathogen in hospital-acquired infections and exhibits increasing antibiotic resistance. A rapid and sensitive molecular method for its detection in clinical samples is needed to guide therapeutic treatment and to control P. aeruginosa outbreaks. In this study, we established a polymerase spiral reaction (PSR) method for rapid detection of P. aerug...
متن کاملDetection of Different Types of Metallo-β-Lactamases among Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates Obtained from Intensive Care Unit Patients
Introduction: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a serious challenge for antimicrobial therapy, due to chromosomal mutations or intrinsic resistance to various antimicrobial agents, such as Metallo-β-Lactams (MBL). This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of β-lactamases encoding genes among P. aeruginosa strains isolated from intensive care unit (ICU) patients by phenotypic and multiplex PCR meth...
متن کاملInvestigation of MexAB-OprM efflux pump gene expression in clinical isolates of pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from Intensive Care Unit
Background and Aims: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most important pathogens of nosocomial infections, especially in the ICU (Intensive Care Unit), which has resistance to a wide range of antibiotics, especially Carbapenems. Among the most important resistance mechanisms of this bacteria against carbapenems are MexAB-OprM efflux pump. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the g...

متن کاملRecurrent Pseudomonas aeruginosa pneumonia in an intensive care unit.
We reviewed the records of all patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) who had Pseudomonas aeruginosa pneumonia over a 2.5-year period. Of patients with P aeruginosa pneumonia, 20 of 34 survived the initial episode of pneumonia. Ten of these 20 developed recurrence. In the nonrecurrent group, nine of ten survived hospitalization, compared to only four of ten in the recurrent group. Comparing ...
