DNA fingerprinting analysis of coagulase negative staphylococci implicated in catheter related bloodstream infections.
AIMS The epidemiological assessment of cases of coagulase negative staphylococcal catheter related bloodstream infection. METHODS Two hundred and thirty patients with suspected catheter related bloodstream infection were evaluated over a two year period. Central venous catheters were cultured both endoluminally and extraluminally. Peripheral blood, catheter hubs, skin entry, and skin control ...
متن کاملCoagulase-negative Staphylococci in Hematological Malignancy
Erik Ahlstrand (2013): Coagulase-negative Staphylococci in Hematological Malignancy. Örebro Studies in Medicine 95. Bacterial infections are common in hematological malignancy. Coagulasenegative staphylococci (CoNS) are among the most prevalent causes of bacteremia in patients with hematological malignancies. In this thesis, different aspects of CoNS in hematological malignancy have been studie...
متن کاملPotential possibilities of using phage typing in elimination of multidrug resistant staphylococci.
Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) have become the most often isolated bacteria from blood culture, spinal fluid and respiratory tracts of neonates. These nosocomial strains are often resistant to oxacillin and other antibiotics (macrolides, aminoglycosides and fluorochinolones). 50 multidrug resistant CoNS strains isolated from bloodstream neonatal infections were tested for sensitivity t...
متن کاملEfficacy of microbial identification system for epidemiologic typing of coagulase-negative staphylococci.
The lack of an adequate typing system hampers our understanding of the epidemiology of infections caused by coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS). CoNS have become recognized as important nosocomial pathogens and the principal cause of infections associated with invasive devices. Sensitive, specific, and convenient methods are needed to evaluate whether implementing infection control guidelin...
متن کاملA study of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) isolated from bovine mastitis for the presence of penicillin and methicillin resistance-encoding genes in the north west of Iran
Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are often associated with bovine mastitis and may be resistant to antimicrobial therapy. The aim of the current study was to investigate the presence of blaZ (responsible for penicillin resistance) and mecA (responsible for methicillin resistance) genes among 108 CoNS belonging to 9 different species isolated from bovine mastitis in seven dairy herds (H1-...
