Epidemiology of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a cystic fibrosis rehabilitation centre.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the leading pathogen in cystic fibrosis (CF) lungs. Since there is great concern about clonal spread in CF centres, this study examined the P. aeruginosa genotypes of colonised residents of a CF rehabilitation centre. The isolates from the sputum of 76 P. aeruginosa-colonised patients were genotyped by fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism on arrival and d...

متن کاملOutcome of Burkholderia cepacia colonisation in an adult cystic fibrosis centre.
BACKGROUND Colonisation with Burkholderia cepacia is a poor prognostic indicator in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF), but outcome prediction is impossible since patients are colonised by different strains with differing pathogenicity. The clinical course of a large cohort of CF patients colonised with UK epidemic (ET12) B cepacia was followed for 5 years and compared with that of the remainin...
متن کاملMolecular screening of R117H mutation in non caucasian cystic fibrosis patients in the north of Iran
