The Surgical Infection Society revised guidelines on the management of intra-abdominal infection [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Previous evidence-based guidelines on the management of intra-abdominal infection (IAI) were published by the Surgical Infection Society (SIS) in 1992, 2002, and 2010. At the time the most recent guideline was released, the plan was to update

Antibiotic prophylaxis is associated with subsequent resistant infections in children with an initial extended-spectrum-cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infection [PDF]

, 2017
The objective of this study was to assess the association between previous antibiotic use, particularly long-term prophylaxis, and the occurrence of subsequent resistant infections in children with index infections due to extended-spectrum-cephalosporin ...

PCR for the detection of pathogens in neonatal early onset sepsis. [PDF]

, 2020
BACKGROUND: A large proportion of neonates are treated for presumed bacterial sepsis with broad spectrum antibiotics even though their blood cultures subsequently show no growth. This study aimed to investigate PCR-based methods to identify pathogens not

Molecular Detection of Carbapenemase-producing Uropathogens Isolated from Pregnant Women

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology
Pregnant women are at high risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs). There is growing concern about the rise of Enterobacteriaceae that are resistant to drugs, including, more recently, those that produce carbapenemase.

Metal–Organic Framework‐Based Antimicrobial Touch Surfaces to Prevent Cross‐Contamination

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A MOF‐based antimicrobial door handle cover is developed. It completely inhibits the cross‐contamination of Gram‐positive bacterial species (Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis), Gram‐negative bacterial species (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii), and fungi (Candida albicans). Abstract Infection diseases

Can rapid integrated polymerase chain reaction-based diagnostics for gastrointestinal pathogens improve routine hospital infection control practice? A diagnostic study

Health Technology Assessment, 2014
Background: Every year approximately 5000–9000 patients are admitted to a hospital with diarrhoea, which in up to 90% of cases has a non-infectious cause.

Identification of Enterobacteriaceae by the automicrobic system: Enterobacteriaceae biochemical cards versus Enterobacteriaceae-plus biochemical cards [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1982
Enterobacteriaceae Biochemical Cards (EBC) may be used in the AutoMicrobic system for identification of enteric bacilli. Recently, the card has been modified to permit identification of enteric and certain nonenteric bacilli. Also, minor modifications have been in the computer program used for interpretation of tests with the new cards (EBC+).
