Speciation and Antibiogram of Clinically Significant Coagulase Negative Staphylococci
Background: Coagulase negative staphylococci (CoNS), once considered as non-pathogenic commensal of skin and mucus membrane have emerged as important pathogen. Aim: The aim of this study is to determine species of CoNS and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of species obtained from various clinical specimens. Materials and Methods: A total of 79 Coagulase negative staphylococci (CoNS) isolate...
متن کاملCharacterization of clinically significant strains of coagulase-negative staphylococci.
On occasion, a patient may have two or more clinical cultures yielding a coagulase-negative staphylococcus If these multiple isolates have the same phenotype, one might conclude that the same strain was reisolated from the patient, indicating its persistent and pathological presence. We examined the validity of this conclusion when we applied a number of characterizing systems to a collection o...
متن کاملClinically significant Coagulase Negative Staphylococci and their antibiotic resistance pattern in a tertiary care hospital.
OBJECTIVES To identify various species of coagulase negative staphylococci involved in neonatal septicaemia and determine their antimicrobial resistance pattern. METHODS The prospective descriptive study was carried out from January 2012 to October 2013, at Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah, Saudi Arabia, and comprised clinical isolates of coagulase negative staphylococci recovered from the bloo...
متن کاملAntibiotic susceptibility pattern and biofilm formation in coagulase negative staphylococci.
Introduction Coagulase negative staphylococci (CoNS) are commensals of non-sterile sites in humans and become pathogenic mostly when the host is immunocompromised by prior diseases or invasive surgical or related procedures [1]. Slime or biofilm production by CoNS has been identified as an important factor in the pathogenesis of infections as bacteria organized in biofilms are protected from th...
متن کاملIdentification and antibiotic susceptibility pattern of coagulase-negative staphylococci in various clinical specimens
OBJECTIVE Antibiotic resistance is a global problem and is more prevalent in developing countries. Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are recognized as important pathogen for nosocomial infections. This study was carried out to identify CoNS in various clinical specimens and to determine its antimicrobial susceptibility pattern. METHODS A total of 2989 specimens of blood, pus and wound s...
