Abstract:

Enteric fever caused by Salmonella enterica remains an unresolved public health problem and due to the prevalence of multidrug resistant (MDR) strains for the last two decades, the first line antimicrobials were discontinued and currently the second line antimicrobials are used. A total of 325 blood samples from clinically suspected enteric fever patients were collected during the study period of July, 2014 to June, 2015. After identification of organisms, antimicrobial susceptibility tests were done by disc diffusion method and MIC by broth microdilution method. Rate of isolation of organisms

Introduction: Enteric-fever is a major public-health problem in developing countries emerging as multidrug-resistant, Nalidixic-acid resistant and extremely drug-resistant Salmonella (Pakistan, 2016), has intensified the use of WHO watch/reserve group antimicrobials such as azithromycin and meropenem. Methods: This ambispective-study was conducted on 782 non-repeat blood-culture isolates of S. Typhi, S. Paratyphi A and S. Paratyphi B obtained from 29,184 blood cultures received at a 1000-bedded tertiary-care hospital of North-India from 2011–2017. Identification and antibiograms were obtained

<strong>Background</strong><strong>:</strong> Salmonella Typhi and Salmonella Paratyphi are the main causes of enteric fever, which is a serious public health issue, especially in developing nations. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is becoming more common, which makes treatment plans more difficult to implement and calls for ongoing surveillance of resistance patterns. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the current patterns of antimicrobial susceptibility to Typhoidal Salmonella in children and young people with enteric fever who attend school. <strong>Methods</strong><strong>:<

Purpose: The morbidity and mortality due to typhoid fever can be significantly reduced with the use of effective antibiotics. At present, fluoroquinolones, third generation cephalosporins, and azithromycin are widely used to treat typhoid fever.

In ciprofloxacin-resistant strains, five S. Typhi and a single S. Paratyphi A showed triple mutations in gyrA (Ser83→Phe, Asp87→Asn, Glu133→Gly) and a novel mutation outside the quinolone resistance determining region (QRDR) (Met52→Leu).
