Antimicrobial use prior as a risk factor for developing extended-spectrum beta-lactamse-producing Klebsiella spp. in South Brazil

چکیده
Methods In a retrospective case control study between June 2009 and June 2010 at Santa Casa de Misericórdia Hospital, city of Ponta Grossa, south Brazil, 61 Klebsiella spp. (29 ESBL and 32 controls non-ESBL-producing isolates) were enrolled. ESBL were screened by disk diffusion method and double disk approximation method, according to CLSI. Prior use of antibiotic was analyzed in electronic medical records. The antibiotic consumption (DDDs – defined daily doses) was tested using the X test (p <0.05).

Detection of Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase Producing Salmonella spp. and Multidrug Resistance Pattern
Background: and Objectives: Salmonella infections are endemic in many developing countries with poor sanitary conditions, but emerge sporadically as a serious public health threat in developed countries. Infections with multidrug resistant (MDR) strains of Salmonella have been associated with treatment failures. Salmonella spp. resistant to extended spectrum cephal...

INTRODUCTION The rising prevalence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases in gram-negative bacillary pathogens is an important clinical problem resulting from the extensive use of broad-spectrum antibiotics. The emergence of the extended-spectrum beta-lactamases increases the possibility that traditional, empiric antimicrobial regimens may be ineffective. The aims of this study are: to determine ...
متن کاملClinical outcome and risk factors related to extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Klebsiella spp. infection among hospitalized patients.
Over the past two decades, nosocomial infections caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Klebsiella spp. have become a major problem all around the world. This situation is of concern because there are limited antimicrobial options to treat patients infected with these pathogens, and also because this kind of resistance can spread to a wide variety of Gram-negative bacilli. ...

Background and Aims: Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing gram negative bacteria are resistant to penicillins, narrow and extended-spectrum cephalosporins, and aztreonam; also they are frequently resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, aminoglycosides, and quinolones. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) determinants q...
