Ventilator Associated Pneumonia by Acinetobacter baumannii And antimicrobial susceptibility pattern
Background: Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is one of the serious complications of ventilator support occurring in ICUs. The aim of this study was to determine the susceptibility pattern of Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) isolated from patients with VAP by two methods: disk diffusion and E. test. Methods: This descriptive-cross sectional study was conducted in the four ICUs of Ras...
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility testing of Acinetobacter spp. by NCCLS broth microdilution and disk diffusion methods.
Although both broth microdilution (BMD) and disk diffusion (DD) are listed by NCCLS as acceptable methods for testing Acinetobacter spp. for antimicrobial susceptibility, few studies have compared the results generated by the two methods. We tested 196 isolates of Acinetobacter spp. from nine U.S. hospitals and from the Centers for Disease Control culture collection by using BMD and DD and clin...
متن کاملSpeciation and Antimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern of Acinetobacter from Clinical Isolates in a Tertiary Care Centre
Acinetobacter has emerged as an important nosocomial pathogen involved in outbreaks of hospital infections. The ubiquitous organism has been recovered from hospital environment, from colonized or infected patients or from staff (Hand carriage). Despite the increasing significance and frequency of multidrug resistant Acinetobacter infections, many clinicians and microbiologists still lack an app...
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility of Shigella, 2015 and 2016
Hospital and community laboratories are requested to refer all Shigella isolates from cases of shigellosis to ESR for serotyping and biotyping as part of the laboratory-based surveillance of this disease. The antimicrobial susceptibility of viable, non-duplicate Shigella isolates referred to ESR in 2015 and 2016 was tested. This is the first antimicrobial susceptibility survey of Shigella that ...
متن کاملMultidrug resistant acinetobacter infection and their antimicrobial susceptibility pattern in a nigerian tertiary hospital ICU.
BACKGROUND Acinetobacter baumannii, a non-glucose fermenting Gram negative bacillus, has emerged in the last three decades as a major etiological agent of hospital-associated infections giving rise to significant morbidity and mortality particularly in immunocompromised patients. Multidrug resistant A. baumannii (MDR-AB) is fast becoming a global threat, having developed resistance to major cla...
