Induction of human plasmablasts during infection with antibiotic-resistant nosocomial bacteria.

Airborne Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria: Hospital Indoor Air Pollution and the Challenge of Nosocomial Infection

شیوع بتالاکتامازهای وسیع الطیف در سویه های اشرشیاکلی و کلبسیلا پنومونیه ایزوله از بیماران بستری و سرپایی مبتلا به عفونت های ادراری در مراکز منتخب شهر اصفهان

  Background: Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is the second most common infection in human. Most of UTIs are due to Escherichia coli ( E.coli) and Klebsiella pneumoniae ( K.pneumoniae) . These bacteria are relevant opportunistic pathogens that account for nosocomial infections. Prevalence of Extended-Spectrum Beta-lactamase (ESBLs) in pathogenic bacteria leads to antibiotic resistance and mortali...

Pattern of antibiotic resistance in nosocomial infections with Gram-negative bacilli in ICU patients (Tehran, Iran) during the years 2012-2014

Background and Objective: Owing to the new patterns of antibiotic resistance, selection of the appropriate antibiotics for the treatment of nosocomial infections, especially gram-negative bacilli, has become a big challenge. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the antibiotic resistance of nosocomial infections with Gram-negative bacilli in Iran during the years 2012-2014. Material...

Molecular Identification of Pathogenic Enterococci and Evaluation of Multi-drug Resistance in Enterococcus Species Isolated From Clinical samples of Some Hospitals in Tehran, Iran

Background: Multidrug-resistant (MDR) enterococci cause many problems for physicians and infection control specialists in the recent years. Hence, by the identification of antibiotic resistance patterns of enterococci in different geographical regions an appropriate strategy can be developed to prevent bacterial antibiotic resistance and provide effective treatment. The current study aimed at i...

Low incidence of multidrug-resistant bacteria and nosocomial infection due to a preventive multimodal nosocomial infection control: a 10-year single centre prospective cohort study in neurocritical care

BACKGROUND Nosocomial infection (NI) control is an important issue in neurocritical care due to secondary brain damage and the increased morbidity and mortality of primary acute neurocritical care patients. The primary aim of this study was to determine incidence of nosocomial infections and multidrug-resistant bacteria and seek predictors of nosocomial infections in a preventive multimodal nos...
