Antimicrobial Nonsusceptibility of Gram-Negative Bloodstream Isolates, Veterans Health Administration System, United States, 2003–20131
Bacteremia caused by gram-negative bacteria is associated with serious illness and death, and emergence of antimicrobial drug resistance in these bacteria is a major concern. Using national microbiology and patient data for 2003-2013 from the US Veterans Health Administration, we characterized nonsusceptibility trends of community-acquired, community-onset; healthcare-associated, community-onse...
متن کاملImpact of fluoroquinolone prophylaxis on reduced infection-related mortality among patients with neutropenia and hematologic malignancies.
BACKGROUND Fluoroquinolone prophylaxis during neutropenia in patients with cancer has been associated with decreased incidence of gram-negative bacteremia. Bacterial antimicrobial resistance is likely to cause a progressive lack of efficacy of fluoroquinolones, but no convincing evidence from clinicoepidemiologic observations has proved this hypothesis. METHODS This prospective observational ...
متن کاملBacterial Bloodstream Infections in Neonates in a Developing Country
Background. Ongoing surveillance of antimicrobial sensitivity patterns of bacteria isolated in bloodstream infections guides empiric antibiotic therapy in neonatal sepsis. Methods. Sensitivity profiles of neonatal bacterial bloodstream infections in a tertiary hospital were reviewed between 01/06/2009 and 30/06/2010 . Results. There were 246 episodes of bloodstream infection in 181 individuals-...
متن کاملChanging epidemiology of bloodstream infection pathogens over time in adult non-specialty patients at an Australian tertiary hospital.
The epidemiology of bloodstream infections (BSI) has been changing over time in developed countries. However, overview reports of BSI trends are limited in Australia. This descriptive epidemiological study analysed general and age-group specific trends, and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of blood culture isolates between 2001 and 2009 in non-specialty adult patients at an Australian tert...
متن کاملMolecular typing of fluoroquinolone resistant Escherichia coli isolates from patients undergoing prostate biopsy
Background: Escherichia coli (E. coli) is one of the most important infectious agents in patients undergoing prostate biopsy. It belongs to a large family of gram-negative rods, Enterobacteriaceae. This family includes members of the normal flora of the intestine that are only occasionally pathogenic. Recent considerations of rectal colonization with fluoroquinolone-resistant E. coli shows the ...
