Antibiotic Therapy of Bacterial Endocarditis.
the best antibiotic pair for bactericidal effect. Twelve of the last 14 patients were cured (86 p)er cent), 10 with combined therapy. The cure rate in enterococcal endocarditis now approximates that of endocarditis caused by penicillin-sensitive streptococci. A maximal number of cures is achieved by individualization of therapy. The daily dosage of penicillin and the duration of combined I)enic...
متن کاملAntibiotic resistance pattern of bacterial agents isolated from blood culture of patients with infective endocarditis
Background: Infective endocarditis occurs due to the presence of microorganisms in the endocardium or the heart valves. Nowadays, infective endocarditis is still a major cause of death with an incidence rate of 5 to 7.9 per 100,000 populations. The aim of the study was to determine antibiotic resistance pattern of bacterial agents isolated from blood culture of patients with infective endocardi...
متن کاملAntibiotic sensitivity pattern in bacterial endocarditis.
Seventyone blood cultures were taken from suspected cases of infective endocarditis. The positive cultures were isolated for study of their antibiotic susceptibility patterns. Gentamycin was found to be the most effective. Cloxacillin, chloramphenicol, Vibramycin, Tetracyclin, Erythromycin were next in order. The incidence of bacteria probably susceptible to high dose schedules and those demons...
متن کاملAntibiotic sensitivity testing in bacterial endocarditis.
Seventy-one blood cultures were taken from 26 suspected cases of bacterial endocarditis. Antibiotic sensitivity pattern was determined in 29 positive cultures. Gentamycin was found to be the most effective. Cloxacillin, chloramphenic.o1,vibramycin, tetracycline, erythromycin were next in order (J PMA 33 87,1983).
متن کاملAntibiotic therapy of experimental Staphylococcus epidermidis endocarditis.
Endocarditis was produced in rabbits with a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis isolate. Subpopulations resistant to other semisynthetic penicillins and cephalosporins were detected in the isolate. Their presence was probably responsible for the increase in minimum bactericidal concentrations and minimum inhibitory concentrations when tests with high inocula, rather than low inocul...
