Resistance of Gram-Negative Bacilli to Gentamicin

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1971
Strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistant to gentamicin have appeared during three years of extensive use of this antibiotic in the Winnipeg General Hospital. During October and November of 1970, isolates of P. aeruginosa sensitive to gentamicin were recovered from 62 patients.

Meningitis Caused by Gram-Negative Bacilli

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1980
Thirty adults with meningitis caused by gram-negative bacilli were observed from 1968 to 1978 at four hospitals associated with Boston University School of Medicine. Equal numbers of two distinct types of gram-negative bacillary meningitis--spontaneously occurring meningitis and meningitis after neurosurgery--were found.

Toewebs as a source of Gram-negative bacilli

Journal of Hospital Infection, 1986
The prevalence of Gram-negative bacilli on the toewebs was 8% in normal students, 24% in hospital outpatients with suspected Tinea pedis, 41% in industrial workers wearing protective clothing and 58% in coal miners. Prevalence was greatest in those exposed to wet working conditions.

Pneumonia caused by gram-negative bacilli

The American Journal of Medicine, 1985
Gram-negative bacillary pneumonia has become an increasingly important disease in immunosuppressed, elderly, and hospitalized patients. The clinical features, etiologic agents, population at risk, treatment, and outcome in patients with well-documented gram-negative pneumonia were compared in two groups of patients: those with bacteremic pneumonia and ...

Infections with gram-negative bacilli

Pathology, 1969
This paper reported the results of an investigation of gram-negative bacilli isolated in the Bacteriology Department of Royal Newcastle Hospitalin the course of the routine examination of all specimens(excepting faeces) received during the period from October 1967 to May 1968. Involved were 1,228 strains of gram-negative bacilli.

Susceptibility of Nontermentative Gram-Negative Bacilli to Tobramycin

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1976
There has been increasing interest in the pathogenic role of nonfermentative gram-negative bacilli in human infections. Except for Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the susceptibility pattern of these organisms to tobramycin has not been evaluated thoroughly. The activity of tobramycin, as compared with that of gentamicin, was tested by the serial broth dilution

Nonfermentative gram-negative bacilli of nosocomial interest [PDF]

The American Journal of Medicine, 1970
Current bacteriologic technics have made possible more specific delineation of gram-negative bacilli isolated from clinical material. As a result, a heterogeneous collection of organisms, poorly described in the past, have been grouped together operationally in the laboratory, based on their nonfermentative character.

ADULT BACTEREMIA CAUSED BY GRAM-NEGATIVE BACILLI

Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1979
Because gram-negative bacteremia is increasing in frequency, it is important for physicians to suspect, carefully evaluate, and initiate early appropriate therapy. Identification of the probable source of bacteremia and a knowledge of the hospital microflora are helpful in guiding antibiotic selection. The mortality of gram-negative bacteremia tends to

Extracellular cephalosporinases produced by gram-negative bacilli

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1972
Seventy-five strains of nine species of gram-negative organisms were tested for susceptibility to cephapirin, a new cephalosporin antibiotic, and 23% were found to be resistant. Two of the resistant organisms, an Escherichia coli and a Serratia marcescens, consistently produced cephalosporinase in their filtrates. The E. coli filtrates produced by 109
