Đặt vấn đề: Nhiễm khuẩn đường tiết niệu là một trong những bệnh truyền nhiễm do vi khuẩn, chiếm tỉ lệ mắc cao đáng kể các trường hợp tại viện. Việc giám sát phát hiện sớm và ngăn ngừa NKTN rất quan trọng đối với bác sĩ lâm sàng giúp chẩn đoán điều trị hiệu quả. Mục tiêu: Khảo gây trùng niệu, xác định mức độ kháng sinh của từng chủng phân lập được. Phương pháp nghiên cứu: Nghiên cứu mô tả cắt ng...

Background: Acinetobacter baumannii is a highly virulent bacterium. It causes opportunistic and nosocomial infections and is a threat to healthcare settings. It has also developed multidrug resistance (MDR) capacity. The nosocomial bacteria and antibiotic resistance are primordial and a significant public health concern. These bacteria and their threat can be prevented by reducing infected food...

The initial omicron (B.1.1.529) severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) subvariants, BA.1 and BA.2 (BA.1/2), were progressively displaced by BA.5 in Japan, which showed not only higher transmittivity less pathogenicity, but also differences antibiotic use according to the difference clinical course of compared with BA.1/2 infections. patients received more antibiotics, espe...

A 78-year-old Japanese man was admitted to our hospital because of fever lasting for 4 days. His white blood cell count and C-reactive protein level were elevated and computed tomography of the chest showed bronchopneumonia in the right upper lobe of the lung. Streptococcus pyogenes was detected from sputum and blood culture samples on admission and administration of ampicillin/sulbactam was ef...

Patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) are at higher risks of bacterial pneumonia than the general population, and the pathogen is the most commonly involved Streptococcus pneumoniae. We hereby report a case of pneumococcal pneumonia associated with leptomeningitis, osteomyelitis and epidural abscess in a patient with AIDS. He is being successfully treated with ampicillin/sulba...

Cutaneous anthrax is well known, unlike anthrax of the lumbar region, which is not reported elsewhere. We present a case of anthrax of the lumbar region in a 50-year-old man. The infection was characterised by a wide, black eschar and oedema on an erythematous ground. After isolation of the Gram-positive bacilli from the skin lesions, prompt antibiotic treatment (intravenous sulbactam-ampicilli...

Combination of lactam antibiotic with lactamase inhibitor has been proven to overcome resistance caused by lactamase production. An evaluation to the MIC of some lactam antibiotics to b-lactamase producing isolates will be reported. A.anitratus, E.coli, K.pneumoniae, Proteus sp, Pseudomonas sp, S.aureus, S.epidermidis, S.pneumoniae, S.viridans, and hemolytic Streptococcus, were challe...

Ninety-three rectal swabs of lambs and young goats from two extensively and two intensively managed herds in Jordan were taken and examined for Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC). The bacteriological examination included the preenrichment of rectal swabs in EC broth with novobiocin, and a subsequent parallel isolation on enterohemolysin agar and immunomagnetic separation with cultiva...
