Clinical significance of extended - spectrum β - lactamases
www.expert-reviews.com ISSN 1478-7210 © 2008 Expert Reviews Ltd 10.1586/14787210.6.5.671 The potential options available for treating serious infections caused by enterobacteria include penicillins (with or without β-lactamase inhibitors), cephalosporins, aztreonam, carbapenems, fluoroquinolones and, in certain situations only, aminoglycosides and colistin. Recently, tigecycline has been added ...
متن کامل[The widening challenge of extended spectrum β-lactamases].
Since 1980, the prescription of new semi-synthetic molecules of third generation cephalosporins changed the course of modern medicine. However, the acquired resistance against these antibiotics was rapidly developed with the production of extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) (TEM and SHV types) disseminated mainly by nosocomial Klebsiella pneumoniae clones. Since around 2000, we are facing a w...
متن کاملPrevalence of Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamases Genes in Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen resistant to various antibiotics. The aim of the present study was to study resistant patterns in clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa, classify them into pandrug resistance (PDR), extensive drug resistance (XDR) and multidrug resistance (MDR)...
متن کاملThe Importance of Extended-Spectrum β-lactamases in Gram-Negative Enteric Bacilli and the Phenotypic Methods of detection
The production of β-lactamase enzymes is the main mechanism of resistance to β-lactam antibiotics in gramnegative bacilli. Therefore, it is important to identify the β-lactamases-producing bacteria for the treatment of caused infections. This article aimed to review the recent literature and guidelines regarding phenotypic detection of β-lactamases in common gram-negative bacilli in clinical sa...
متن کاملCTX-M Extended-spectrum β-Lactamases, Washington State
Our study of risk factors for T. gondii infection was a case-control design to evaluate recent infection, not a cross-sectional study of T. gondii infection prevalence in a population. In our study, case-patients with recent infection were similar in age to T. gondii–negative control-patients, although among women the mean age of case-patients (33 years) differed slightly from that of control-p...
