gentamicin and Leukocytosis

gentamicin has been researched along with Leukocytosis in 8 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.

Leukocytosis: A transient increase in the number of leukocytes in a body fluid.

"A prospective protocol consisting of clindamycin-gentamicin plus the selective addition of ampicillin or vancomycin cured 303 of 322 (94%) women with postcesarean endometritis."3.70Puerperal infection after cesarean delivery: evaluation of a standardized protocol. ( Andrews, WW; Brumfield, CG; Hauth, JC, 2000)
"Intra-abdominal infection developed in 7 of 21 (33%) who had a persistent leukocytosis, but no intra-abdominal infections developed after operation in 30 patients who had normal WBC counts at the end of antibiotic treatment (p less than 0."1.26Implications of leukocytosis and fever at conclusion of antibiotic therapy for intra-abdominal sepsis. ( Dellinger, EP; Lennard, ES; Minshew, BH; Wertz, MJ, 1982)
"Since gram-negative septic arthritis responds poorly to aminoglycoside antibiotic therapy, we sought to determine whether synovial fluid acidosis contributes to this poor outcome."1.26Acidosis of synovial fluid correlates with synovial fluid leukocytosis. ( Steigbigel, RT; Ward, TT, 1978)
