Efficacy of Amikacin and Imipenem Against Multi-Drug Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria Isolated From Wound Infections
Background and Objective: Gram-negative pathogens are considered the common cause of wound infections associated with increased mortality and morbidity rates. Antibiotics combination has been used to overcome this problem. Aims: In this study, we identify Gram-negative pathogens found in wound infections and assess the in-vitro efficacy of a combination of amikacin and imipenem against the resi...
متن کامل490High Dose Tigecycline for the Treatment of Multi-Drug Resistant Gram Negative Urinary Tract Infections
Background. Tigecycline is a glycylcycline derived from the tetracycline antibiotics with potent bacteriostatic activity against gram negative, gram positive, and anaerobic organisms. With only 15 to 22 percent of tigecycline excreted unchanged in the urine with a standard dose of 50 mg every 12 hours, clinicians have debated the use of tigecycline for the treatment of multi-drug resistant urin...

Our aim was to evaluate colistin efficiency and toxicity in the treatment of these resistant gram-negative bacterial infections. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective study carried out in a tertiary care hospital during 2011-2013. Study data wer...
متن کاملAntibiotic-resistant gram-negative bacterial infections in patients with cancer.
Patients with cancer are at high risk for infections caused by antibiotic resistant gram-negative bacteria. In this review, we summarize trends among the major pathogens and clinical syndromes associated with antibiotic resistant gram-negative bacterial infection in patients with malignancy, with special attention to carbapenem and expanded-spectrum β-lactam resistance in Escherichia coli, Kleb...
متن کاملGram-Negative Bacterial Wound Infections
Acinetobacter baumannii is recognized as an emerging bacterial pathogen because of traits such as prolonged survival in a desiccated state, effective nosocomial transmission, and an inherent ability to acquire antibiotic resistance genes. A pressing need in the field of A. baumannii research is a suitable model strain that is representative of current clinical isolates, is highly virulent in es...
