AIM Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) causes heavy financial burden on healthcare systems worldwide. As with all hospital-acquired infections, prolonged hospital stays are the main cost driver. Previous cost studies only include hospital billing data and compare the length of stay in contrast to non-infected patients. To date, a survey of actual cost has not yet been conducted. ...
BACKGROUND We were alerted to increased rates of Clostridium difficile-positive tests at all 3 hospitals in our health care system by MedMined Data Mining Surveillance Service, CareFusion (San Diego, CA). In response, an intervention of terminal room cleaning with dilute bleach was instituted to decrease the amount of C difficile environmental spore contamination from patients with C difficile ...
Spore-forming pathogenic bacteria, such as Clostridium difficile, are associated with nosocomial infection, leading to the increased use of sporicidal disinfectants, which impacts socioeconomic costs. However, C. difficile can be prevented using microorganisms such as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, a prophylactic agent that has been proven to be effective against it in recent tests or it can be co...
Resistance to Tigecycline and/or Colistin among nosocomial pathogens is an emerging problem. Objective of the study was to record the drug susceptibility pattern of carbapenemase producing gram negative bacteria causing various nosocomial infections. This study was performed over six months from January to June2013 with 167 nonrepeat culture isolates causing various nosocomial infections.Antimi...
Clostridium difficile strain ribotype 027 is a hypervirulent pathogen that is responsible for recent, severe outbreaks of serious nosocomial infections. As a foundation for the development of a preventative carbohydrate-based vaccine, we have synthesized a pentasaccharide cell wall repeating unit from PS-I unique to this strain, by the linear assembly of four monosaccharide building blocks.
Background: Knowledge of the profile of antibiotic resistance in bacteria in a hospital is essential for guiding appropriate patient treatment. This is especially important for the severely ill patients, because treatment must be initiated before the results of cultures can be obtained. In this study, we aimed to analyze the profile of multidrug-resistant bacteria (MR) found in blood cultures f...
BACKGROUND Clostridium difficile (CD) infection and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonization are increasingly common in elderly patients, are associated with cephalosporin or prolonged aminopenicillin courses and can be transmitted by direct contact. Management is by side-room isolation. Ward closure may be required to control outbreaks. METHODS following prolonged bed ...
Lipophilic corynebacteria isolated as natural flora of human skin were examined. Among 119 assayed strains 94% presented a hydrophobic cell surface and 75.6% were able to form biofilms. These attributes, as well as aggregation in liquid media, were statistically connected with each other and promote the developing of biofilms on solid surfaces. This was characteristic of all the lipophilic Cory...
The emergence of antimicrobial resistance is a global problem in the community and in hospitals. Antibiotic resistance of Gram-negative bacteria from nosocomial infections were evaluated during a 6-month period at Shariati teaching hospital, Tehran, Islamic Republic of Iran. Susceptibility tests were performed on 570 Gram-negative isolates obtained from clinical samples of patients infected aft...
