These studies indicate that DHCP are more or less involved in MRSA transmission. The frequency of transmission via DHCP in the dental office is probably low and the main “porte de sortie” is most likely the patient. However, even if DHCP will become colonised by MRSA, the chances for ...
Kawasaki disease is a very serious disease that can mimic many infections. When unrecognized and untreated, it can result in severe damage to the coronary arteries of the heart, resulting in heart attack and sudden death in children. Luckily, most pediatricians are taught to look out for Kawasak...
found that the resistance rates to AMC, cefuroxime, cefaclor, ceftazidime, ceftriaxone and levofloxacin amongst K. pneumoniae isolates associated with community-acquired respiratory tract infection were all ≤10% [12]. Amongst 101 community-acquired meticillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA) isolated in...
D According to the Lancet, countries that have more or less ignored MRSA, such as China, South Korea and Japan, have some of the highest rates of incidence. Meanwhile, those with a low prevalence of MRSA, such as Finland, Denmark and the Netherlands, have high levels of surveillance and ...
(ESBLs), but more recently the focus has shifted to multiply-resistant Gram-positive pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and coagulase-negative staphylococci, pneumococci, enterococci and even viridans group streptococci, some of which cause common infections in t...

The susceptibility pattern of MRSA checked against 14 routinely used antimicrobials showed high susceptibility rates to vancomycin 149 (100%), linezolid 144 (96.7%), minocycline 143 (96.3%) and moderate susceptibility to rifampicin 111 (74.7%), fusidic acid 99 (66.7%) and chloramphenicol 93 (62.6...
