gentamicin and Brain Diseases

gentamicin has been researched along with Brain Diseases in 22 studies

Gentamicins: A complex of closely related aminoglycosides obtained from MICROMONOSPORA purpurea and related species. They are broad-spectrum antibiotics, but may cause ear and kidney damage. They act to inhibit PROTEIN BIOSYNTHESIS.

Brain Diseases: Pathologic conditions affecting the BRAIN, which is composed of the intracranial components of the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. This includes (but is not limited to) the CEREBRAL CORTEX; intracranial white matter; BASAL GANGLIA; THALAMUS; HYPOTHALAMUS; BRAIN STEM; and CEREBELLUM.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The efficacy of endolymphatic route of gentamicin and ceporin administration was studied in 89 patients with neurosurgical pathological processes complicated by acute pneumonia (80 patients) and meningoencephalitis (9 patients) usually after ineffective antibiotic therapy according to the routine methods."3.67[Intralymphatic administration of antibiotics in the complex treatment of suppurative complications in patients with neurosurgical pathology]. ( Polinov, AV; Popov, EP; Rachkov, VM; Raevskiĭ, VP; Shcherbakova, EG, 1984)
"A 42-year-old Sri Lankan male with type 2 diabetes presented with a febrile illness of 6 days with headache and constitutional symptoms."1.51Melioidosis with a subdural collection - a case report. ( Amarasena, HLP; Jayamanne, SF; Ranawaka, UK; Silva, FHDS; Tilakaratna, PMYI, 2019)
" Based on these findings, we propose changes in gentamicin dosing interval and trough level monitoring to minimize the risk of potentially toxic levels in cooled newborns."1.39Factors associated with permanent hearing impairment in infants treated with therapeutic hypothermia.
