Can non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae carriage surveillance data infer antimicrobial resistance associated with otitis media? [PDF]
In remote communities of the Northern Territory, Australia, children have high rates of otitis media, commonly caused by non‐typeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi). As the collection of middle ear fluid for culture is not practical for routine healthcare, otitis media is not always diagnosed based on culture results unless the eardrum has perforated ...

Epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance of pathogens in pediatric sinus infections: a retrospective study at a Japanese otolaryngology clinic (2023–2025) [PDF]
IntroductionHaemophilus influenzae and Streptococcus pneumoniae are two of the major pathogens responsible for pediatric rhinosinusitis. Rising antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and pneumococcal serotype replacement have complicated treatment decisions ...

Serotype Distribution and Antimicrobial Resistance Profile of Haemophilus influenzae Isolated from School Children with Acute Otitis Media. [PDF]
Haemophilus influenzae is a Gram‐negative opportunistic bacterial pathogen of the human respiratory tract. This study describes the prevalence, serotype distribution, and susceptibility profiles of H. influenzae strains isolated from the nasopharynx of school children with acute otitis media (AOM) in Banyumas Regency, Central Java, Indonesia.

Automated peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis due to Haemophilus influenzae showing the BLNAR phenotype [PDF]
A rare case of peritonitis due to beta-lactamase-negative, ampicillin-resistant Haemophilus influenzae is described in an 18-year-old male undergoing automated peritoneal dialysis. The infection was probably of respiratory origin. Two strains of H. influenzae cultured from peritoneal fluid and a nasal swab were indistinguishable by molecular methods ...

Abstract Haemophilus influenzae is causative agent of serious infections especially among children. β-lactam antibiotics are commonly used for treatment of these infections. Among H. influenzae isolates, β-lactam resistance can be due to the presence of either a β-lactamase, or in β-lactamase negative ampicillin resistant strains (BLNAR), to ...
