Penicillin-resistant Streptococcus Pneumoniae
Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major cause of pneumonia, meningitis, septicemia, acute otitis media, and other serious infections, severely affecting infants, young children, and the elderly. In the past, S. pneumoniae was uniformly susceptible to penicillin, which remained the drug of choice for serious infections. However, since the mid-1960s, resistance to penicillin, which was first reported...

متن کاملClonal distribution of penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae 23F in France.
We studied the clonality of clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae 23F, the serotype most often associated with penicillin resistance in France. Clinical isolates obtained between November 1992 and April 1993 from nasopharyngeal samples from children with acute otitis media from different regions of the country were analyzed. The genetic polymorphism of penicillin-susceptible and -resist...
متن کاملFluoroquinolone Resistance in Penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae Clones, Spain
Among 2,882 Streptococcus pneumoniae sent to the Spanish Reference Laboratory during 2002, 75 (2.6%) were ciprofloxacin-resistant. Resistance was associated with older patients (3.9% in adults and 7.2% in patients > or =65 years of age), with isolation from noninvasive sites (4.3% vs. 1.0%), and with penicillin and macrolide resistance. Among 14 low-level resistant (MIC 4-8 microg/mL) strains, ...
متن کاملNasopharyngeal carriage of penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae in healthy children.
Streptococcus pneumoniae carriage is a risk factor for the development of respiratory system infections and the spread of penicillin-resistant strains. The aim of this study was to investigate nasopharyngeal carriage of S. pneumoniae in healthy children and resistance to penicillin and other antimicrobials and to assess related risk factors. Nasopharyngeal specimens collected from healthy child...
