Prevalence of Inducible Clindamycin Resistance in Staphylococcal Isolates at a Korean Tertiary Care Hospital
Clindamycin resistance in Staphylococcus species can be either constitutive or inducible. Inducible resistance cannot be detected by the conventional antimicrobial susceptibility test. In this study, we determined the prevalence of inducible clindamycin resistance in staphylococcal isolates at a Korean tertiary care hospital. Between February and September 2004, 1,519 isolates of Staphylococcus...
متن کاملPrevalence of inducible clindamycin resistance among community-associated staphylococcal isolates in central Serbia.
The emergence of resistance to most antimicrobial agents in staphylococci indicates the need for new effective agents in the treatment of staphylococcal infections. Clindamycin is considered to be one safe, effective and less costly agent. We analysed 482 staphylococcal isolates. Detection of inducible clindamycin resistance was performed by the D-test, while the presence of methylases genes: e...

background and objectives: accurate designation of antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of the infecting microorganisms is an important crucial factor in making appropriate therapeutic decisions. macrolide, lincosamide and streptogramin b antibiotics are in a family, reserved as an alternative approach in treatment of resistant gram positive cocci. amongst them, clindamycin has been considered ...
متن کاملNeonatal septicemia isolates and resistance patterns in a tertiary care hospital of North India.
BACKGROUND Septicemia continues to be a major cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity worldwide. METHODOLOGY To know the rate of neonatal septicemia in our tertiary care centre, a retrospective analysis of 2,247 blood samples was done over a period of four years and three months (July 2003 to October 2007). RESULTS During that period, a total of 296 (13.17%) blood samples were found to be...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Seroprevalence of Transfusion Transmissible Infections among Blood Donors in a Tertiary Care Hospital of North India
Background: Unsafe transfusion practices put patients at high risk of transfusion transmissible infections. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of transfusion transmissible infections (including Human Immunodeficiency Virus [HIV] 1 and 2, Hepatitis B Virus [HBV], Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) and syphilis) during a period of 18 months among blood donors in the Blood Bank of Lady Hardinge Medical Coll...
