Comparison of Tigecycline and Vancomycin Activities in an In Vitro Biofilm Model Generated with Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Abstract: * Bu çalışma ilk yazarın uzmanlık tez çalışmasıdır. ÖZGünümüzde yüksek mortalite, uzun süreli hastanede yatış ve artan maliyete yol açan kan dolaşımı enfeksiyonlarının en sık sebebi damar içi kateterlerdir. Kateter ile ilişkili enfeksiyon etkenleri arasında stafi lokoklar ilk sırayı almakta ve biyofi lm oluşturma özellikleri nedeniyle hastaların tedavisi ve yöneti-minde ciddi sorunlara yol açmaktadırlar. Vankomisin, metisiline dirençli Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) enfeksiyonlarının tedavisinde seçilecek ilaç o… Show more

“…Tigecycline has shown broad-spectrum activity against most pathogenic bacteria and it has been noted to have a positive effect on bacterial biofilm in vitro, including multidrug-resistant strains [11,12,13]. In the clinical setting, tigecycline is one of the few alternatives for the treatment of complicated skin and soft-tissue infections, complicated intra-abdominal infections, and community-acquired bacterial pneumonia [14].…”

“…It was reported that some MRSA had even developed resistance to vancomycin which is the most effective antibiotic for the treatment of MRSA (Cong et al, 2020). With the introduction of biomaterials such as artificial catheters and artificial joints, implant material-related infections frequently develop (Biedlingmaier et al, 1998), and they are usually persistent and multidrug-resistant, which brings a heavy burden to patients (Aslan and Yapar, 2015). The main cause of such infections is biofilm formation (Uruen et al, 2020).…”
