Emergence of Microbial Resistance During Hospitalization
Legionellosis is an acute pneumonia that can be fatal particularly in undetectable level, yet few days of fluoroquinolone treatmentwere sufimmunocompromised patients, if not treated promptly. The preeminent causative agent, Legionella pneumophila, like other Legionella species, is an inhabitant of aquatic biotopes and ofman-madewater systems, including also home drinking water sources, where it...
متن کاملEmergence of daptomycin resistance in Enterococcus faecium during daptomycin therapy.
Daptomycin is a cyclic lipopeptide antibiotic that has been available in the United States since September 2003. We report a clinical and bacteriological failure of daptomycin therapy for enterococcal bacteremia. Briefly, a 22-year-old man with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, subsequent acute myelogenous leukemia, and nonseminomatous testicular carcinoma developed neutropenic fever during chemotherapy in 2...
متن کاملEmergence of HIV-1 drug resistance during antiretroviral treatment.
Treating HIV-infected patients with a combination of several antiretroviral drugs usually contributes to a substantial decline in viral load and an increase in CD4(+) T cells. However, continuing viral replication in the presence of drug therapy can lead to the emergence of drug-resistant virus variants, which subsequently results in incomplete viral suppression and a greater risk of disease pr...
متن کاملPopulation-Wide Emergence of Antiviral Resistance during Pandemic Influenza
BACKGROUND The emergence of neuraminidase inhibitor resistance has raised concerns about the prudent use of antiviral drugs in response to the next influenza pandemic. While resistant strains may initially emerge with compromised viral fitness, mutations that largely compensate for this impaired fitness can arise. Understanding the extent to which these mutations affect the spread of disease in...
متن کاملMicrobial isolation and emergence of antimicrobial resistance associated with tigecycline usage.
BACKGROUND With the increasing experience of tigecycline usage, its ecological impact on microorganisms raises concerns but remains unknown. We aimed to analyze the difference in microorganisms isolated before, during, and after tigecycline usage and their susceptibility to antimicrobial agents. METHODS Between July 2008 and August 2009, 66 patients who received tigecycline monotherapy for mo...
