Fecal Microbiota Transfer for Multidrug-Resistant Gram-Negatives: A Clinical Success Combined With Microbiological Failure
نویسندگان
چکیده
Combined fecal microbiota transfer and antibiotic treatment prevented recurrences of urinary tract infections with multidrug-resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa, but it failed to eradicate intestinal colonization with MDR Escherichia coli. Based on microbiota analysis, failure was not associated with distinct diminished microbiota diversity.

Influx of multidrug-resistant organisms by country-to-country transfer of patients
BACKGROUND Multidrug-resistant organisms (MDRO) are a worldwide problem. International migration and travel facilitate the spread of MDRO. Therefore the goal of our study was to assess the risk of influx of MDRO from patients transferred to one of Central Europe's largest hospitals from abroad. METHODS A mono-centre study was conducted. All patients transferred from other countries were scree...
متن کاملProspects for Success in Inhibiting the Growth of Multidrug-resistant Bacteria with Paromomycin
Streptomyces is the most important bacterial genus known to produce secondary antibiotic compounds. Considering the speed of bacterial resistance spread, it becomes more important to study less used compounds. Aminoglycosides disrupt the function of the target microorganism by acting on the protein-synthesis process. Paromomycin is an aminoglycoside that acts on a wide range of gram-positive, g...
متن کاملAssociation between colistin dose and microbiologic outcomes in patients with multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteremia.
BACKGROUND Colistin is increasingly used for the treatment of multidrug-resistant gram-negative infections. However, colistin dosing varies greatly and the optimal regimen is unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine if colistin dosing correlates with patient outcomes. METHODS This retrospective study included patients with gram-negative bacteremia treated with intravenous colistin ...
متن کاملClinical and microbiological outcomes of serious infections with multidrug-resistant gram-negative organisms treated with tigecycline.
Eighteen patients received tigecycline as treatment for infection due to multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacilli, including Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase- and extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. Pretherapy minimum inhibitory concentration values for tigecycline predicted clinical success. Observed evolution of resistance during ther...
متن کاملMultidrug resistant Gram-negative bacilli in lower respiratory tract infections
BACKGROUND Lower respiratory tract infections are among important causes of morbidity and mortality for all age groups. The emergence of multidrug resistant Gram-negative bacilli is an issue of increasing concern. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study including respiratory specimens (sputum and BAL) was conducted in our tertiary care centre. Samples were processed for microscopy, cultur...
