An international multicenter retrospective study of Pseudomonas aeruginosa nosocomial pneumonia: impact of multidrug resistance
INTRODUCTION Pseudomonas aeruginosa nosocomial pneumonia (Pa-NP) is associated with considerable morbidity, prolonged hospitalization, increased costs, and mortality. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of adult patients with Pa-NP to determine 1) risk factors for multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains and 2) whether MDR increases the risk for hospital death. Twelve hospitals in 5 co...
متن کاملPseudomonas aeruginosa serotypes in nosocomial pneumonia: prevalence and clinical outcomes
INTRODUCTION Pseudomonas aeruginosa frequently causes nosocomial pneumonia and is associated with poor outcome. The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence and clinical outcome of nosocomial pneumonia caused by serotype-specific P. aeruginosa in critically ill patients under appropriate antimicrobial therapy management. METHODS A retrospective, non-interventional epidemiological mu...
متن کاملHealthcare Resource Utilization and Cost Related to Nosocomial Pneumonia Caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in France: A 2010-2011 Population-Based Cohort Study Using a National Claims Database
Background: Nosocomial pneumonia is a leading cause of hospital-acquired infection. However, evidence is limited regarding resource utilization and healthcare costs associated with nosocomial pneumonia in France. Methods: This retrospective case-control study used a nationwide hospital claims database for cases of nosocomial pneumonia caused by Staphylococcus aureus or Pseudomonas aeruginosa. H...
متن کاملAntibiotic Resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in Pneumonia at a Single University Hospital Center in Germany over a 10-Year Period
BACKGROUND Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common cause of community-acquired and nosocomial-acquired pneumonia. The development of resistance of P. aeruginosa to antibiotics is increasing globally due to the overuse of antibiotics. This article examines, retrospectively, the antibiotic resistance in patients with community-acquired versus nosocomial-acquired pneumonia caused by P. aeruginosa or mu...
متن کاملGenetic diversity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from ventilated patients with nosocomial pneumonia, cancer patients with bacteremia, and environmental water.
Random amplified polymorphic DNA typing was used to study the genetic diversity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains from (i) ventilated patients with nosocomial pneumonia who were hospitalized in intensive care units, (ii) cases of bacteremia in cancer patients with severe neutropenia, and (iii) rivers and swimming pools. Genetic diversity was determined by three phylogenetic methods and by stati...
