In vitro susceptibilities of four species of coagulase-negative staphylococci

Abstract: The in vitro susceptibilities of 260 strains of coagulase-negative staphylococci to penicillin G, oxacillin, nafcillin, methicillin, cephalothin, and seven non-Il-lactam antimicrobial agents were determined and compared with the susceptibilities of 54 strains of Staphylococcus aureus with known patterns of susceptibility. Penicillin G susceptibility for S. aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus haemolyticus, and Staphylococcus hominis was readily determined by using I-lactamase tests with induced c… Show more

“…One treatment failure has been described and resistance to van-comycin has been documented in a dialysis patient with catheter-associated peritonitis caused by a strain of Staphylococcus haemolyticus (137). Vancomycin resistance in this staphylococcal species had been described before this report (61), so whether this represents a trend or a problem limited to S. haemolyticus is not clear.…”

“…La edad media de nuestras pacientes infectadas (32,7 años) es superior a otros datos publicados 5,[20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] ; probablemente, se deba a que, en nuestro país, cuanto mayor es la paciente, mayor número de ITU ha padecido y, por tanto, se realiza urocultivo con más frecuencia.…”

“…Al igual que los datos obtenidos tras las revisiones bibliográficas, no hemos encontrado cepas resistentes a gentamicina, rifampicina, amoxicilina-ácido clavulánico y vancomicina 11,12,[24][25][26][27] . La resistencia a cloranfenicol es escasa (3,9%) y semejante a la descrita por Alós et al 11 en 1997 (2,8%), pero sorprendente, ya que es un antibiótico prácti-camente eliminado de la farmacopea y, además, en nuestras cepas, su resistencia se asocia con elevada frecuencia a la resistencia a eritromicina, hecho que no hemos visto reflejado en otras publicaciones.…”
