Abstract

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, a gram-negative non-fermenter has evolved from a colonizer to a significant pathogen over the last decade. It resides in various ecological niches both inside and outside the hospital settings. Infections due to S. maltophilia can be life-threatening, especially in immunocompromised patients. S. maltophilia is intrinsically resistant to most of the antibiotics, which limits treatment options. There are several risk factors involved. The present study was done to assess the risk factors and clinical outcomes associated with S. maltophilia blood stream infections and non-blood stream infections.

嗜麦芽窄养单胞菌感染的危险因素和临床结果:南印度三级保健中心的情况。

嗜麦芽窄养单胞菌是一种革兰氏阴性的非发酵菌，在过去的十年里，它已经从一种殖民者进化为一种重要的病原体。它存在于医院内外的各种生态位中。嗜麦芽葡萄球菌引起的感染可能危及生命，特别是在免疫功能低下的患者中。嗜麦芽链球菌对大多数抗生素具有内在耐药性，这限制了治疗选择。这涉及到几个风险因素。本研究旨在评估嗜麦芽葡萄球菌血流感染和非血流感染相关的危险因素和临床结果。Varshini MK, Ganesan V, Sundaramurthy R, Rajendran T. .嗜麦芽窄养单胞菌感染的危险因素和临床结果:印度南部三级医疗中心的情况。中华检验医学杂志;2009;26(8):935-937。
