Resistance to Tetracycline and Vancomycin of Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Sanandaj Patients by Molecular Genotyping

Vancomycin Resistance in Staphylococcus aureus Strains

Reduced sensitivity of staphylococcus aureus to vancomycin

Introduction: Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common causes of infections in hospitals and vancomycin is used for the treatment of methicillin resistant S, aureus infections. Therefore, imergence of Staphylococcus aureus with reduced sensitivity to vancomycin is a serious problem. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus with reduced suscep...

Susceptibility To Vancomycin In Staphylococcus Aureus Isolated From Patients Of Four University-Affiliated Hospitals In Tehran

  Background and Objective: Vancomycin is frequently the antibiotic of choice for the treatment of infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). For the last years, the incidence of vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus (VISA) and vancomycin-resistant S. aureus (VRSA) has been increased in various parts of the world. The present study ...

Vancomycin Resistance Pattern of Staphylococcus Aureus among Clinical Samples

Abstract Background and Objective: Vancomycin is used for treatment of methicillin-resistant S. Aureus (MRSA) infections therefore, resistance to this antibiotic is increasing. We aimed to determine the antibiotic resistance pattern and frequency of vancomycin resistant S. Areas (VRSA) strains isolated from clinical samples. Material and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 100 S. Aureus iso...

Prevalence of Vancomycin Resistance in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus

Background & Aims: Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common pathogens in nosocomial infections. Vancomycin is the most important therapeutic drug of choice for treatment of infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains. Therefore, vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) or vancomycin-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus (VISA) strains are warning...
