197 Bacteriophages and antibiotic resistance in cystic fibrosis

Evaluation of Antibiotic Resistance Trend among Cystic Fibrosis Patients: A Single Center Study from 2014-2019

Background: Antibiotic resistance in Cystic Fibrosis (CF) patients has been a serious issue in their survival. The objective of this study was to investigate the antibiogram trend in serial admissions among CF patients. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective descriptive-analytical study, from 2014 to 2019, 95 known cases of CF pati...

Antibiotic Susceptibility of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Isolated from Cystic Fibrosis Patients

Abstract Background and Objective: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive genetic disease and Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most common bacteria colonized in CF patients. Growing resistance of this bacterium to antibiotics now a day is a challenge of controlling infection in CF patient. In this study colonization of CF patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and antibiotic suscep...

Antibiotic allergy in cystic fibrosis.

Allergic reactions to antibiotics are more common in cystic fibrosis (CF) than in the general population. This in part is due to the improving survival in adults with CF and the increased use of high dose intravenous antibiotics. While some are immediate anaphylaxis type (IgE mediated) reactions, the majority are late onset and may have non-specific features such as rash and fever. Piperacillin...
