TAILIEUCHUNG - Hypothetical estimate of drug-burden on a diabetic foot ulcer patient and its relevance to microbiological analysis
In a retrospective study, conducted in Chennai (India), during 2005, a total of 104 bacterial isolates, obtained from 75 diabetic foot ulcer patients, revealed the presence of 9-bacterial species, namely, S. aureus, CONS spp, Streptococcus spp, Corynebacterium spp, Enterococcus spp, E. coli, Klebsiella spp, Proteus spp, and P. aeruginosa, in different percentages. The in-vitro antibiotic sensitivity pattern of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, tested in the retrospective study, and the antibiotic sensitivity patterns of the 8-other pathogens as adopted from available literature relating to 2-South Indian locations (Kelambakkam and Bengaluru), and 2-North Indian locations (Chandigarh and New Delhi), were compared with the data of the multicentre trial studies related to diabetic foot infections, carried out by Citron, ., et al., (2007), in the United States. |
