Global antibiotic resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae.
The last two decades of the 20th century were marked by an increasing resistance rate among several bacteria. Threat of resistance is present in Staphylococcus spp., Enterococcus spp., Pseudomonas spp. and Enterobacteriaceae, which are the major pathogens in nosocomial infections. In the community, too, increasing resistance can be observed and is attributed mainly (but not exclusively) to Stre...
متن کاملMacrolide resistance among invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates.
CONTEXT Macrolide antibiotics, including erythromycin, clarithromycin, and azithromycin, are the mainstays of empirical pneumonia therapy. Macrolide resistance among Streptococcus pneumoniae, the most common cause of community-acquired pneumonia, is increasing in the United States. Whether resistance is a significant problem or whether macrolides remain useful for treatment of most resistant st...
متن کاملAntibiotic-resistant invasive pediatric Streptococcus pneumoniae clones in Israel.
Antibiotic-resistant international clones of Streptococcus pneumoniae are increasingly reported in different parts of the world. We investigated the spread of these clones through an active surveillance performed at the Israeli Streptococcal National Center during 1998 and 1999. Isolates were tested for antibiotic susceptibility, serotyped, and genotyped by random amplified polymorphic DNA anal...
متن کاملAntibiotic resistance of clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae in Greece.
The antibiotic susceptibilities of 1,002 Streptococcus pneumoniae clinical isolates from patients with community-acquired pneumonia were determined over an 18-month period. Resistance rates were 14% for penicillin, 20% for erythromycin, 26% for tetracycline, and 1% for chloramphenicol. Resistance to non-beta-lactam antibiotics was associated with penicillin resistance at statistically levels.
متن کاملNasopharyngeal carriage, antibiotic resistance and serotype distribution of Streptococcus
Abstract Background and objectives: Colonization of nasopharynx by Streptococcus Pneumoniae can lead to pneumococcal disease. This study was performed to determine the carriage rate of nasopharyngeal S.pneumoniae in adolescents and their antibiotic susceptibility and serotype prevalence in Zahedan, Iran Material and Methods: Nasopharyngeal specimens were obtained from 865 adolescents aged 10-19...
