Conclusion: In this study, UTI was found to be more prevalent among elderly females. Gram-negative organisms were the most commonly isolated pathogens in UTI, with E. coli being the most frequent agent. Urinary pathogens exhibited resistance to commonly used antibio...
The data was collected from the Clinical Microbiology Laboratory of International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh (ICDDR,B). The data included culture results of 9,854 urine samples and only Gram-negative isolates irrespective of age groups were analyzed. The prevalence of UTI was...
However, multiply resistant gram- negative bacilli threaten to overtake their gram-positive counterparts in importance because of the lack of antibiotic options available to treat gram-negative bacilli (5). Due to a range of commercial and scientific reasons, development of new antibiotics active ...
and other non-fermentative gram-negative bacilli.1,5 Their intrinsic resistance is due to their outer membrane impermeability. Acquired resistance to this drug class is due to four mechanisms: modification of the antibiotic target, inactivation of the antibiotics, reduction of outer memb...
We would admit a child with a UTI to the hospital, start antimicrobial therapy, do an intravenous pyelogram after a negative urine culture, and keep the child on antibiotics for a month until the follow-up vesicoureterogram (VCUG). Still no consensus on UTI management 4) has largely replac...
As Kuwait is one of the countries where the total consumption of antibiotics is very high as compared to most of the western countries, we are inclined to assume that this generous policy for the prescription of especially ampicillin and other broad spectrum antibiotics in uncomplicated infections ...
Resistance to antibiotics is highly prevalent in bacterial isolates causing UTI. Objectives : To observe the isolation of gram positive bacteria causing UTIs and determine their resistance pattern to antibiotics. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in BPKIHS from August 2009- August 2010. A ...
The emergence of MDR Gram-negative bacilli (mainlyP. aeruginosa, A. baumanniiand recentlyK. pneumoniae) in parallel with the lack of new antibacterials, led to the revival of polymyxins, which is an old class of cyclic polypeptide antibiotics that was discovered in 1947 fromBacillus polymyxa.[9...
Multiple multidrug-resistant isolates were also identified among both Gram-positive and Gram-negative isolates. Low to moderate susceptibility was found against first- and second-line antibiotics recommended in the National standard treatment guidelines (NSTG). Laboratory quality management deficiencies and ...
