In vitro activity of ceftaroline against community-associated methicillin-resistant, vancomycin-intermediate, vancomycin-resistant, and daptomycin-nonsusceptible Staphylococcus aureus isolates.
This study assessed the in vitro activities of ceftaroline and five comparator agents against a collection of Staphylococcus aureus isolates. Ceftaroline demonstrated potent activity against community-associated methicillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA) isolates and showed bactericidal activity against vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus (VISA), vancomycin-resistant S. aureus (VRSA), heteroresist...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Activity of Ceftaroline Tested against Staphylococci with Reduced Susceptibility
Vancomycin, linezolid, and daptomycin are very active against staphylococci, but isolates with decreased susceptibility to these antimicrobial agents are isolated sporadically. A total of 19,350 Staphylococcus aureus isolates (51% methicillin resistant [MRSA]) and 3,270 coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) were collected consecutively from 82 U.S. medical centers from January 2008 to Decembe...
متن کاملCeftaroline fosamil salvage therapy: an option for reduced-vancomycin-susceptible MRSA bacteraemia.
OBJECTIVES To examine the activity of ceftaroline against reduced-vancomycin-susceptible MRSA isolates. METHODS One-hundred and three MRSA blood culture isolates (predominantly ST239-MRSA-III), with varying vancomycin phenotypes, had their ceftaroline MICs determined by broth microdilution and MIC Evaluator strip (Oxoid-Thermo Fisher). Statistical analyses were performed that examined relatio...
متن کاملCeftaroline versus isolates from animal bite wounds: comparative in vitro activities against 243 isolates, including 156 Pasteurella species isolates.
More than 5 million Americans are bitten by animals, usually dogs, annually. Bite patients comprise ∼1% of all patients who visit emergency departments (300,000/year), and approximately 10,000 require hospitalization and intravenous antibiotics. Ceftaroline is the bioactive component of the prodrug ceftaroline fosamil, which is FDA approved for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin str...
متن کاملEvaluation of Tigecycline Activity Against Methicillin-Resistante Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from Biological Samples
Tigecycline is a new glycylcycline antibiotic structurally similar to minocycline antibiotic. It has broad spectrum activity, including Staphylococcus aureus infections. This is the first study that evaluated the activity of Tigecycline against Staphylococcus aureus isolated from biological samples in Iran. In vitro activity of tigecycline against 160 Staphylococcus aureus including 99 methicil...
