Management of Intra-abdominal Infections due to Carbapenemase-Producing Organisms.
2014
The prevalence of bacterial resistance to carbapenem antibiotics continues to increase because of bacteria producing metallo-β-lactamases (MBL), called carbapenemase-producing organisms (CPO). Enterobacteriaceae, which can be a common cause of intra-abdominal infections (IAIs), have become carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE). Updated international guidelines for the treatment of both IAIs and IAIs due to CRE have been published. Given the multifaceted nature of these infections, these recommendations have been jointly reviewed and endorsed by the Surgical Society and the Association of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Disease. The aims of this review are to summarize the genera…
Prognostisch relevante Faktoren bei der intraabdominalen infektion
1992
From 1.1.1982-30.9.1989 280 patients were treated for intraabdominal infection at the clinic for general and abdominal surgery. With regard to their prognostic significance, the extent and localization of the peritonitis, abscess formation, the number of failed organ system, patients' age, total protein, thrombocytes and leucocytes were examined in these patients. The most unfavorable prognosis showed diffuse peritonitis with a mortality rate of 47.2%. Subsequent abscessing worsened the prognosis of the illness. There was a close correlation between the number of failed organ systems at the time of hospitalization and mortality. Low total protein content or more so a necessary substitution …
