Treatment of Haemophilus aphrophilus endocarditis with ciprofloxacin.
    The Journal of infection, 1992, Volume: 24, Issue:3

    A patient with Haemophilus aphrophilus endocarditis was successfully treated with ciprofloxacin. The response to treatment with cefotaxime and netilmicin for 12 days was poor but was satisfactory to a 6 weeks' course of ciprofloxacin.

    Topics: Adult; Cefotaxime; Ciprofloxacin; Endocarditis, Bacterial; Haemophilus Infections; Humans; Male; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; Netilmicin

1992
Haemophilus segnis endocarditis.
    The Journal of infection, 1988, Volume: 16, Issue:1

    Haemophilus segnis is a rarely recognised commensal in the oropharynx. We wish to report the first published case of endocarditis caused by H. segnis. The patient, a 76-year-old female did not recover until after 2 courses of ampicillin given for a total of 57 days. In the second course of treatment, ampicillin was combined with 10 days of netilmicin therapy.

    Topics: Aged; Ampicillin; Antibodies, Bacterial; Echocardiography; Endocarditis, Bacterial; Female; Haemophilus; Haemophilus Infections; Humans; Immunoelectrophoresis, Two-Dimensional; Netilmicin

1988
Antibiotic susceptibility of Haemophilus influenzae isolated from cerebrospinal fluid and blood.
    Acta pathologica, microbiologica, et immunologica Scandinavica. Section B, Microbiology, 1986, Volume: 94, Issue:3

    The emergence of ampicillin and chloramphenicol resistant Haemophilus influenzae type b in Denmark has created demands for alternative treatments of serious infections with H. influenzae. In this study 102 strains of H. influenzae recovered from cerebrospinal fluid (85) and blood (17) were tested for susceptibility to ampicillin, piperacillin, erythromycin, rifampicin, chloramphenicol, cefuroxime, cefotaxime, ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, moxalactam, aztreonam, and netilmicin by means of the agar dilution method. The majority (97%) was H. influenzae type b and of these strains 94% belonged to biotype I. Nine of the investigated strains were beta-lactamase producers. Ceftriaxone and cefotaxime were the most active agents (MIC90 less than or equal to 0.025 microliter/ml) followed by moxalactam and aztreonam (MIC90 = 0.1 microgram/ml). Except for ampicillin and piperacillin, the MIC was similar for beta-lactamase producers and non-producers. Several of the investigated antibiotics, especially some of the third generation cephalosporins, might constitute valid therapeutical alternatives to conventional drugs in the treatment of severe H. influenzae infections.

    Topics: Anti-Bacterial Agents; beta-Lactamases; Cefotaxime; Ceftriaxone; Cephalosporins; Cerebrospinal Fluid; Chloramphenicol; Drug Resistance, Microbial; Haemophilus Infections; Haemophilus influenzae; Humans; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; Netilmicin; Rifampin; Sepsis

1986
Netilmicin: efficacy and tolerance in the treatment of systemic infections in neonates.
    Scandinavian journal of infectious diseases. Supplementum, 1980, Volume: Suppl 23

    38 newborn infants, 28 males and 10 females, were treated with netilmicin in doses 6-7 mg/kg/day for suspected or verified infections. 19 patients were mature (mean birth weight 3169 g) and 19 were premature (mean birth weight 1864 g). 32 had moderate or severe underlying diseases. 37 babies survived, 33 were cured or improved markedly and in 4 the results were indeterminate. Pathogenic bacteria were demonstrated in 24 cases and were eliminated in 15. Only one baby died. He suffered from severe respiratory distress syndrome and Escherichia coli septicemia. No E. coli was isolated at autopsy. The mean netilmicin peak serum value was 7.7 micrograms/ml (range 1.0-30.0) and the mean trough concentration 2.1 micrograms/ml (range 0.0-9.2). No adverse effects were seen.
