Intravitreal Daptomycin for Recalcitrant Postoperative Endophthalmitis
PURPOSE To report the first case to our knowledge of intravitreal daptomycin used to successfully treat culture-negative vancomycin resistant to exogenous endophthalmitis. METHODS Case report with preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative findings. RESULTS A 63-year-old Caucasian male underwent routine pars plana vitrectomy with epiretinal membrane peeling. He developed acute postoper...

difference was similar for both reviewers and no bias in the other ratings was observed, we believe this occurred because the advantages of the iPhone’s display (eg, higher dot pitch and brightness) outweighed its disadvantages (eg, lower resolution and smaller screen area). The factors contributing to this difference warrant additional investigation. It also remains to be seen whether relevant...
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 کاملFuture directions with daptomycin.
Daptomycin is the first new natural-product antibiotic launched in a generation.

Further clinical trials are in progress, some investigating performance in subsets of SSTIs while others, more interestingly, are evaluating efficacy in enterococcal endocarditis an...
متن کاملResistance studies with daptomycin.
We studied the in vitro emergence of resistance to daptomycin using three methods: spontaneous resistance incidence, serial passage in the presence of increasing drug concentrations, and chemical mutagenesis. No spontaneously resistant mutants were obtained for any organism tested (<10(-10) for Staphylococcus aureus, <10(-9) for Staphylococcus epidermidis, <10(-9) for Enterococcus faecalis, <10...
