چکیده

Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) isolated in neonatal late-onset sepsis are often antibiotic resistant. We analyzed CoNS from skin and feces of neonates during hospitalization. Antibiotic resistance of skin isolates increased during hospitalization, especially in Staphylococcus haemolyticus. Staphylococcus warneri showed low antibiotic resistance. Our data suggest that different CoNS species may play distinct roles in colonization.

Mupirocin resistance in coagulase-negative staphylococci, after topical prophylaxis for the reduction of colonization of central venous catheters.

Topical mupirocin was routinely applied to insertion sites of central venous catheters (CVC) of neonates in a neonatal intensive care unit. After five years, mupirocin resistance was recorded in 42% of clinical isolates of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS). This decreased to 21% during a mupirocin-free interval of five months. We performed a prospective study on the significance of mupiroc...

Constitutive and Inducible Clindamycin Resistance Frequencies among Staphylococcus sp. Coagulase Negative Isolates in Al-Basrah Governorate, Iraq

Background: Antibiotics called macrolide, lincosamide and streptogramin B (MLSB) are being used to treat staphylococci infections. Multiple pathways that impart resistance to MLSB antibiotics have been confirmed to cause clinical failure. The present work aimed to determine the frequency of constitutive and inducible clindamycin resistant among coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) isolates o...
