Antimicrobial Resistance in Hospital-Acquired Gram-Negative Bacterial Infections [PDF]
Aerobic gram-negative bacilli, including the family of Enterobacteriaceae and non-lactose fermenting bacteria such as Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter species, are major causes of hospital-acquired infections. The rate of antibiotic resistance among these pathogens has accelerated dramatically in recent years and has reached pandemic scale.

Ampicillin in Treatment of Certain Gram-negative Bacterial Infections [PDF]
Ampicillin, the first semisynthetic penicillin active against Gram-negative pathogens, is bactericidal in vitro to Escherichia coli, certain Proteus spp., some Klebsiella strains, salmonellae, and shigellae. The susceptible range of Gram-positive organisms is the same for ampicillin as for benzylpenicillin, although ampicillin is much less potent ...

Community-acquired multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial infective endocarditis [PDF]
We describe two cases of bacterial endocarditis secondary to multidrug-resistant Gram-negative organisms. In both cases, the diagnosis was made in accordance with the modified Duke's criteria and confirmed by histopathological analysis. Furthermore, in both instances there were no identifiable sources of bacteraemia and no history of contact with ...
