Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Infection in Cystic Fibrosis Patients
Cystic Fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disease where the lung is heavily colonized by biofilm forming Pseudomonas aeruginosabacteria. Biofilm due to its thick wall and presence of extracellular polymeric substances confers bacteria with a much higher resistance against antimicrobial compounds and environmental stress. Research has revealed the presence of extracellular DNA (eDNA) in ...
متن کاملPseudomonas infection, allergy, and cystic fibrosis.
The clinical significance of the high prevalence of positive immediate skin tests in cystic fibrosis is unclear. Using analysis of variance, we have tested the hypothesis that patients with allergic cystic fibrosis have worse lung disease than non-allergic patients. Clinical data, skin prick tests, total or specific IgE antibody levels, chest radiographs, and pulmonary function tests were obtai...
متن کاملCystic fibrosis. 1. Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in cystic fibrosis and its management.
Cystic fibrosis is the most prevalent of the fatal inherited diseases in white populations. It is characterised by the triad of chronic pulmonary disease, pancreatic insufficiency, and increased concentrations of electrolytes in sweat. Most patients are treated in specialised centres and at least 40 000 are alive in Europe and the United States. Until recently cystic fibrosis was exclusively a ...
متن کاملNosocomially acquired Pseudomonas cepacia infection in patients with cystic fibrosis.
Pseudomonas cepacia is a significant respiratory pathogen in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF).‘-‘j Since the first reports of its increasing prevalence and association with rapid pulmonary function decline and unexpected deaths,‘JJ many studies have been conducted in attempts to elucidate its epidemiology in CF patients.s,“14 Surveillance in more than 100 United States CF centers has shown th...
متن کاملManagement of refractory Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in cystic fibrosis
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common life-limiting inherited disease in Caucasian populations. The main cause of death in CF patients is respiratory failure resulting from chronic pulmonary infection. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the most prevalent organism in the airway colonization of CF patients, and its persistence in the airways has been related to greater morbidity with a more rapid deter...
