TL;DR
The increase in antibiotic resistance observed for most of the antibiotics evaluated represents a relevant clinical challenge requiring continuous epidemiological surveillance and is a relevant clinical challenge requiring continuous epidemiological surveillance.
Abstract
Objective
to characterize the resistance profile of Burkholderia cepacia during the period 2015-2019, as well as to describe the demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients from whom the B. cepacia isolates were obtained.
Method
the study was retrospective, descriptive, cross-sectional. Statistical analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test and chi-square test.
Results
During the study period, 587 B. cepacia isolates were identified, with a higher percentage in males (61.8%), and the prevalence of B. cepacia infections was higher in adults (75%) compared to pediatric patients. Blood cultures yielded the highest number of B. cepacia isolates (64.3%), with an increase in resistant strains in the year-over-year distribution for most of the antibiotics evaluated.
Conclusion
the increase in antibiotic resistance observed for most of the antibiotics evaluated represents a relevant clinical challenge requiring continuous epidemiological surveillance. The majority of infected patients were adult males, and blood cultures yielded the highest number of B. cepacia isolates.
BACKGROUND: This study evaluated environmental contamination by Staphylococcus aureus in the Pediatric Department of the Hospital de Clínicas of the Federal University of Uberlândia (HC-UFU), as well as the antimicrobial resistance profile of the isolated strains, aiming to understand the potential risks associated wit...

Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (ABA-RCB) infections represent a critical global threat due to their limited therapeutic options. This observational, analytical and retrospective study (2021-2024) evaluated the clinical, epidemiological profile and outcome of 57 patients with confirmed ABA-RCB infection in...

PURPOSE
To analyse the epidemiology, antimicrobial susceptibility and molecular diversity of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates recovered in 2016-2017 at a tertiary hospital in northern Spain, and to perform a seven-year pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) evaluation using susceptibility data from previous studies cond...

BACKGROUND
Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) is a group of ≥21 related organisms, including B. cepacia, Burkholderia cenocepacia, and Burkholderia multivorans. BCC can cause opportunistic infections in people who are immunocompromised and those with comorbidities or lung conditions. BCC exhibits intrinsic and acquired...
