Consequences of bacterial resistance to antimicrobial agents.
to review what current knowledge exists on the impact of antimicrobial bacterial resistance and address the methodologic obstacles to its assessment. Simply to state that a patient died of an infection caused by a resistant organism does not prove that the death was due to the resistance. To prove the statement as to cause of death, two approaches— " imputable death " and " attributable death "...
متن کاملDevelopment of bacterial resistance to streptovaricin.
Streptovaricin' is a complex of closely related antibiotics which has received extensive study in our laboratories because of its broad in vitro antibacterial spectrum, and its in vivo activity against experimental infections of mice and guinea pigs with virulent strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Siminoff et al., 1957; Whitfield et al., 1957; Rhuland et al., 1957). A number of interesting ...
متن کاملSpontaneous Bacterial Mutations to Resistance to Antibacterial Agents
Bacterial genetics differs from the genetics of higher organisms chiefly because of lack of information about the mechanism of orderly transmission of characters from generation to generation, owing to the absence of well-established processes of conjugation and to the infant state of bacterial cytol0,~. Our only way of approach is the study of bacterial mutability, for which the field of bacte...
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 کاملMedication Errors in Administration of Chemotherapeutic Agents: an Observational Study
Chemotherapy medication errors may lead to potentially harmful consequences while most of them could be preventable. This study aims to determine the incidence and type of drug handling and administration errors among the nurses and to identify possible contributing factors. Setting of the study was a teaching hospital affiliated to Shahid Beheshti University of Medic...
