Prevalence of MDR-and XDR Gram-negative pathogens isolated from febrile neutropenic cancer patients with bloodstream infections in Egypt and new synergistic antibiotic combinations
Author(s): Khaled Mohamed Anwar Aboshanab
Blood stream infections (BSIs) are defined as positive isolate(s) of blood culture and associated with clinical findings.Cancer patients are among the key candidates for this type of infections due to the methods of treatment they have, such as invasive surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunosuppressive agents, or administration of anticancer drugs during hospital stay. Cancer patients sustaining BSI also have higher morbidity and mortality rates. Therefore, speedy identification of isolates, clinical diagnosis, and effective treatment of BSIs decrease the risk of mortality among cancer patients with BSI.Infection with multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens including extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae are particularly prevalent among cancer patients.... view more»
