Staphylococcus Epidermidis as a Cause of Bacteremia
Staphylococcus epidermidis is a biofilm-producing commensal organism found ubiquitously on human skin and mucous membranes, as well as on animals and in the environment. Biofilm formation enables this organism to evade the host immune system. Colonization of percutaneous devices or implanted medical devices allows bacteria access to the bloodstream ...

Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis infections on implants
Journal of Hospital Infection, 2018Infections are one of the main reasons for removal of implants from patients, and usually need difficult and expensive treatments. Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis are the most frequently detected pathogens. We reviewed the epidemiology and pathogenesis of implant-related infections.

Staphylococcus Epidermidis as a Uropathogen in Children
Urology, 2023Historically, Staphylococcus epidermidis has been considered a contaminant when grown on urine cultures. However, a growing body of literature suggests that S. epidermidis can cause urinary tract infections (UTIs) in children with anatomic variants or a history of instrumentation.

Staphylococcus epidermidis infections
Microbes and Infection, 2002The opportunistic human pathogen Staphylococcus epidermidis has become the most important cause of nosocomial infections in recent years. Its pathogenicity is mainly due to the ability to form biofilms on indwelling medical devices. In a biofilm, S. epidermidis is protected against attacks from the immune system and against antibiotic treatment, making

Staphylococcus epidermidis Infections
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1983Staphylococcus epidermidis, an organism routinely found on the skin and in the hospital environment, has become a primary pathogen in infections associated with prosthetic devices. Because these infections are indolent and often clinically silent, diagnosis and therapy are often difficult. Pathogens are often misidentified as contaminants.

Characterization of the Hemagglutinin of Staphylococcus epidermidis
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1995Adherence to biomaterials and production of biofilm is thought to be pivotal in the pathogenesis of prosthetic device infection by Staphylococcus epidermidis. In this study a strong association (P < .001) of hemagglutination with adherence and biofilm production was observed.
