Mitigation of nontuberculous mycobacteria in hospital water: challenges for infection prevention
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2022Purpose of review The purpose of this review is to summarize recent literature on nontuberculous mycobacteria in water of healthcare systems. Despite improvement in identification techniques and emergence of infection prevention and control programs ...

A review of current and promising nontuberculous mycobacteria antibiotics.
Future Medicinal Chemistry, 2021Nontuberculous mycobacteria infections are a growing concern, and their incidence has been increasing worldwide in recent years. Current treatments are not necessarily useful because many were initially designed to work against other bacteria, such as ...

Outbreaks of nontuberculous mycobacteria
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2017Purpose of reviewThe purpose of this review is to summarize the emerging literature on nontuberculous mycobacteria outbreaks in healthcare settings. As our ability to identify mycobacterial species develops, we are better able to recognize epidemiologic connections and better understand the prevalence and importance of these outbreaks and pseudo ...

The nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), especially Mycobacterium avium complex, are being recognized with increasing frequency as clinical pathogens, not only as a cause of disseminated disease in patients with AIDS but also as a cause of chronic lung disease in patients without AIDS. These infections have traditionally been difficult and frustrating to

The nontuberculous mycobacteria are for the most part ubiquitous environmental organisms that only rarely cause disease in humans. Therefore, the normal host defense against these organisms must be quite robust, as exposure is universal and disease is rare.

Nontuberculous mycobacteria in cystic fibrosis
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2021Purpose of review Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are challenging infections among people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) as the source, modes of transmission, and best practices for diagnosis and treatment are not known. Investigators have defined aspects of NTM infection that are unique to the CF population, as well as features

Nontuberculous mycobacteria in cystic fibrosis
Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2002The incidence of NTM pulmonary infections increasingly is recognized in patients with CF. This may reflect the increasing longevity of this population with increased environmental exposure time, a high index of suspicion, and/or some as of yet unidentified predisposing factor(s). The most common species of NTM in CF is MAC, followed by M.

Water and nontuberculous mycobacteria
Water Research, 1999Abstract The atypical mycobacteria or nontuberculous mycobacteria differ from tuberculous mycobacteria (M. tuberculosis, M. bovis, M. africanum) because most of them are ubiquitous and saprophytic. A few are considered potential human pathogens: M. avium, M. intracellulare, M. chelonae, M. kansasii, M. marinum, M. fortuituma and M. ulcerans.

Laboratory diagnosis of nontuberculous mycobacteria
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2002In conclusion, it is important to realize that there is no "stand alone" assay for the identification of NTM. Many new species may not be recognized in all assays. Newer molecular tests are more accurate for identification than phenotypic tests and have significantly improved turnaround time.
