Combination antibiotic therapy for multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria
Combination antibiotic therapy for Gram-negative sepsis is controversial. The present review provides a brief summary of the existing knowledge on combination therapy for severe infections with multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas spp., Acinetobacter spp., and Enterobacteriaceae. Empirical combination antibiotic therapy is recommended for severe sepsis and septic shock to reduce mortality related to...
متن کاملTrends of 9,416 multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria.
OBJECTIVE a resistance of hospital-acquired bacteria to multiple antibiotics is a major concern worldwide. The objective of this study was to investigate multidrugresistant (MDR) bacteria, clinical specimens, origin of specimen and trends, and correlate these with bacterial sensitivity and consumption of antimicrobials. METHODS 9,416 bacteria of nosocomial origin were evaluated in a tertiary ...
متن کاملCommunity-acquired pneumonia due to gram-negative bacteria and pseudomonas aeruginosa: incidence, risk, and prognosis.
BACKGROUND Initial empirical antimicrobial treatment of patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is based on expected microbial patterns. We determined the incidence of, prognosis of, and risk factors for CAP due to gram-negative bacteria (GNB), including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. METHODS Consecutive patients with CAP hospitalized in our 1000-bed tertiary care university teaching hospit...
متن کاملThe effect of ethanolic and aqueous extracts of Berberies vulgaris on multidrug- resistant gram-negative pathogenic bacteria
Background and Aim: In recent years, due to the indiscriminate and irrational use of synthetic drugs, the resistance of pathogenic microorganisms has increased; therefore, new compounds are vitally needed. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ethanolic and aqueous extracts of Berberis vulgaris on Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteu...
متن کاملMultidrug efflux pumps of gram-negative bacteria.
Gram-negative bacteria tend to be more resistant to lipophilic and amphiphilic inhibitors than gram-positive bacteria. Such inhibitors include dyes, detergents, free fatty acids, antibiotics, and other chemotherapeutic agents. This property is used in the selective enrichment of gram-negative bacteria, especially of members of the family Enterobacteriaceae, for example with MacConkey agar (cont...
