Cefiderocol, sold under the brand name Fetcroja (by Shionogi) among others, is an antibiotic used to treat complicated urinary tract infections when no other options are available. [5] It is indicated for the treatment of multi-drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [6] [7] [8] It is given by injection into a ...
Gram-negative bacteremia occurs more frequently in elderly populations (65 years or older) and is associated with higher morbidity and mortality in this population. [23] E.coli is the most common cause of community-acquired bacteremia accounting for approximately 75% of cases. [24] E.coli bacteremia is usually the result of a urinary tract ...
[6] [5] [7] Ceftolozane is a cephalosporin antibiotic, developed for the treatment of infections with gram-negative bacteria that are resistant to conventional antibiotics. [8] It was studied for urinary tract infections, intra-abdominal infections and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia.
Proteus penneri is a Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacterium. [1] It is an invasive pathogen [2] and a cause of nosocomial infections of the urinary tract or open wounds. [3] Pathogens have been isolated mainly from the urine of patients with abnormalities in the urinary tract, and from stool. [4]
Gram-negative, Gram-positive, anaerobes: Rarely: aplastic anemia. Inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S subunit of the ribosome Fosfomycin: Monurol, Monuril: Acute cystitis in women: This antibiotic is not recommended for children and 75 and up of age: Inactivates enolpyruvyl transferase, thereby blocking cell wall ...
Enterococcus faecalis – formerly classified as part of the group D Streptococcus system – is a Gram-positive, commensal bacterium inhabiting the gastrointestinal tracts of humans. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Like other species in the genus Enterococcus , E. faecalis is found in healthy humans and can be used as a probiotic.
Morganella morganii is a species of Gram-negative bacteria. [2] It has a commensal relationship within the intestinal tracts of humans, mammals, and reptiles as normal flora. [ 2 ] Although M. morganii has a wide distribution, it is considered an uncommon cause of community-acquired infection, and it is most often encountered in postoperative ...
Acinetobacter is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria belonging to the wider class of Gammaproteobacteria. Acinetobacter species are oxidase-negative, exhibit twitching motility, [7] and occur in pairs under magnification. They are important soil organisms, where they contribute to the mineralization of, for example, aromatic compounds.
