    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Escherichia coli; extended-spectrum β-lactamase; whole genome sequencing; plasmids; hybrid assembly; environment; IncI1; ST131;

    Abstract : Escherichia coli is a commensal inhabitant in the gastro-intestinal tract of humans and animals but it is also the most common bacterial species causing urinary tract infection, which ranges in severity from distal cystitis to urosepsis and septic shock. During the past decades, the prevalence of antibiotic resistant E. READ MORE

  2. 7. The effect  of peroperative skin preparation on bacterial growth during cardiac surgery

    Author : Karin Falk-Brynhildsen; Ulrica Nilsson; Bo Söderquist; Örjan Friberg; Tor Monsen; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; OR; plastic adhesive drape; microbial skin sealent; chlorhexidine; Vårdvetenskap; Nursing Science;

    Abstract : Routine products are used and procedures are followed in order to prevent and minimize the bacterial contamination of the surgical wound, and thus reduce the risk of postoperative wound infections. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the effect of different preoperative skin preparation before cardiac surgery. READ MORE

  3. 8. Local Collagen-Gentamicin for Prevention of Sternal Wound Infections

    Abstract : Staphylococcus epidermidis has emerged in recent years as an important nosocomial pathogen, especially in infections associated with implanted foreign body materials (e.g., prosthetic joints and heart valves) and in individuals with a compromised immune system (e.g. READ MORE

  5. 10. Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae in Wastewater-Associated Aquatic Environments

    Author : Faisal Ahmad Khan; Jana Jass; Bo Söderquist; Ann-Sofie Rehnstam-Holm; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibiotic resistance evolution; ESBL; Klebsiella; Multidrug; VIM;

    Abstract : The emergence of carbapenem resistance due to the carbapenem-hydrolyzing enzymes (carbapenemases) in Enterobacteriaceae has led to limited therapeutic options. The increased resistance to these “last-resort” antibiotics is fueled by overuse and misuse of antibiotics in human medicine and agriculture. READ MORE
