Predominance of a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus clone susceptible to erythromycin and several other non-beta-lactam antibiotics in a Greek hospital
(2001)
A clone of heterogeneously methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates susceptible to erythromycin, ciprofloxacin, clindamycin, co-trimoxazole, nitrofurantoin, rifampicin, tetracycline and vancomycin, ...
Substantially increased faecal carriage of vancomycin-resistant enterococci in a tertiary Greek hospital after a 4 year time interval
(2004)
Objectives: In a tertiary Greek hospital with no documented vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) infections, a cross-sectional study was conducted in order to determine the degree of VRE faecal carriage among adult ...
CTX-M-1 extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Proteus mirabilis in Greece
(2005)
To examine the dissemination of CTX-M-type extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) in clinical isolates of Proteus mirabilis, 91 nonrepetitive ESBL-producing P. mirabilis were collected from infected patients in a tertiary ...
VIM-1 metallo-beta-lactamase in Acinetobacter baumannii
(2006)
In 2004 and 2005, 5 metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL)-positive Acinetobacter baumannii isolates were found in 2 Greek hospitals. Isolates were unrelated and carried bla(VIM-1) in a class 1 integron; bla(OXA-51-) and bla(OXA-58-like) ...
A simple phenotypic method for the differentiation of metallo-beta-lactamases and class A KPC carbapenemases in Enterobacteriaceae clinical isolates
(2010)
The increasing frequency of class A KPC enzymes and class B metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs) among Enterobacteriaceae as well as their possible co-production makes their early differentiation urgent. A simple phenotypic ...
Outbreak of infections caused by Enterobacter cloacae producing the integron-associated beta-lactamase IBC-1 in a neonatal intensive care unit of a Greek hospital
(2002)
Nineteen of 27 ceftazidime-resistant Enterobacter cloacae isolates from a neonatal intensive care unit in Thessaloniki, Greece, had genes coding for the novel extended-spectrum beta-lactamase IBC-1; 18 of those 19 harbored ...
Nosocomial spread of an unusual methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus clone that is sensitive to all non-beta-lactam antibiotics, including tobramycin
(2001)
Between January and December 1999, in Hippokration General Hospital, Thessaloniki, Greece, a large proportion of the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates (34.4%) exhibited susceptibility to virtually all ...
Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus outbreak in a neonatal intensive care unit: Epidemiology, molecular analysis and risk factors
(2013)
Background: Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) may cause outbreaks in neonatal intensive care units (NICU). We describe a biphasic VRE outbreak and identify risk factors for VRE acquisition. Methods: After the ...
