Antibiotic resistance and typing of agr locus in Staphylococcus aureus isolated from clinical samples in Sanandaj, Western Iran
Objective(s): Infections by Staphylococcus aureus remain an important health problem. The aims were to detect mecA, staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec), accessory gene regulator (agr), and integrons in S. aureus and to investigate the relationship of agr types with antibiotic resistance of isolates. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 70 S. aureus isolates w...

متن کاملSurveillance of current antibiotic resistance among clinical isolates S. aureus,E. coli and P. aeroginosa collected from five Iranian cities
Antibiotic resistance is an emerging problem worldwide present in many bacteria, speciallyS. aureus, P. aeroginosa, and E. coli that are consider as the most common group of bacteriaresponsible for nosocomial infections. This problem would be more serious and divesting indeveloping countries where there is not regular surveillance program for periodic antibioticresistance. In attempts to report...
متن کاملNeonatal bacteriemia isolates and their antibiotic resistance pattern in neonatal insensitive care unit (NICU) at Beasat Hospital, Sanandaj, Iran.
Bacteremia continues to result in significant morbidity and mortality, particularly among neonates. There is scarce data on neonatal bacteremia in among Iranian neonates. In this study, we determined neonatal bacteremia isolates and their antibiotic resistance pattern in neonatal insensitive care unit at Beasat hospital, Sanandaj, Iran. During one year, all neonates admitted to the NICU were ev...
متن کاملEfficient national surveillance for health-care-associated infections
BACKGROUND Detecting novel healthcare-associated infections (HCAI) as early as possible is an important public health priority. However, there is currently no evidence base to guide the design of efficient and reliable surveillance systems. Here we address this issue in the context of a novel pathogen spreading primarily between hospitals through the movement of patients. METHODS Using a math...
