Imipenem-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa: Risk Factors for Nosocomial Infections
The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors for nosocomial infections of imipenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (IRPA). A prospective case-control study was performed at a tertiary care hospital in Ankara from January to December 2004. The patients with nosocomial P. aeruginosa infection were included in the study. The features of the patients with IRPA infections were compared t...
متن کاملAge-related susceptibility to Pseudomonas aeruginosa ocular infections in mice.
The susceptibility of newborn and infant mice to eye infection by Pseudomonas aeruginosa was studied in 5-, 10-, 15- to 16-, and 21-day-old mice. In the first of three age-related susceptibility experiments, inoculation of P. aeruginosa under the unopened eyelids of infant (5- and 10-day-old) mice in the absence of prior corneal wounding resulted in acute infection and rapid death of many of th...
متن کاملPrevalence of blaOxacillinase-23 and blaOxacillinase-24/40 carbapenemase genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from patients with nosocomial and non-nosocomial infections in West of Iran
Background and Objective: Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) causes serious nosocomial and non-nosocomial infections. blaOxacillinases (OXA)-23 and blaOXA24/40 provide resistance to carbapenem antibiotics. The aim of this study was assessment of blaOXA-23 and blaOXA-24/40 in P. aeruginosa isolated from patients with nosocomial and non-nosocomial infections. Me...
متن کاملTazocin (Piperacillin-tazobactam) Susceptibility Pattern in Nosocomial Infections
Background & Aims: Utility of antibiotics, such as third and fourth generation of cephalosporins and carbapenems, and resistance to these antibiotics in hospital acquired infections are increased. There are scientific data that support the application of Tazocin (piperacillin-tazobactam) as an empirical treatment of moderate to severe bacterial infections. In our area there is not much informat...
متن کاملData Imbalance in Surveillance of Nosocomial Infections
An important problem that arises in hospitals is the monitoring and detection of nosocomial or hospital acquired infections (NIs). This paper describes a retrospective analysis of a prevalence survey of NIs done in the Geneva University Hospital. Our goal is to identify patients with one or more NIs on the basis of clinical and other data collected during the survey. In this classification task...
