Antimicrobial resistance in septic-purulent infections.

Study of the Antibacterial Action of Metal Nanoparticles on Clinical Strains of Gram-Negative Bacteria

Escherichia coli is among the most frequently encountered germs of purulent septic infections of various localizations. The E.coli strains tend to develop multiple resistance caused by the production of extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) and carbapenemases. This dictates the necessity to search for new antimicrobial agents. In this respect, metal nanoparticles are promising candidates fo...

Antimicrobial Resistance in Gram-negative Bacilli Isolated from Urinary Tracts Infections

Drug sensitivity patterns of bacterial isolates from septic post-operative wounds in a regional referral hospital in Uganda.

BACKGROUND Wound infections have been a problem in the field of surgery for a long time. Advances in control of infections have not completely eradicated this problem because of development of drug resistance. Antimicrobial resistance can increase complications and costs associated with procedures and treatment. OBJECTIVE A study was carried out on drug sensitivity patterns of bacterial isola...

Antimicrobial resistance patterns, clinical features, and risk factors for septic shock and death of nosocomial E coli bacteremia in adult patients with hematological disease

The aim of this retrospective analysis was to evaluate the antimicrobial resistance, clinical features, and risk factors for septic shock and death of nosocomial E coli bacteremia in adult patients in a single hematological center in China. A retrospective case-control study of 157 adult hematological patients with 168 episodes of E coli bacteremia was initiated from April 2012 to July 2015. An...
