nystatin-a1 and Sepsis

Neonatal sepsis causes a huge burden of morbidity and mortality and includes bloodstream, urine, cerebrospinal, peritoneal, and lung infections as well as infections starting from burns and wounds, or from any other usually sterile sites. It is associated with cytokine - and biomediator-induced disorders of respiratory, hemodynamic, and metabolic processes. Neonates in the neonatal intensive care unit feature many specific risk factors for bacterial and fungal sepsis. Loss of gut commensals such as Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli spp., as occurs with prolonged antibiotic treatments, delayed enteral feeding, or nursing in incubators, translates into proliferation of pathogenic microflora and abnormal gut colonization. Prompt diagnosis and effective treatment do not protect septic neonates form the risk of late neurodevelopmental impairment in the survivors. Thus prevention of bacterial and fungal infection is crucial in these settings of unique patients. In this view, improving neonatal management is a key step, and this includes promotion of breast-feeding and hygiene measures, adoption of a cautious central venous catheter policy, enhancement of the enteric microbiota composition with the supplementation of probiotics, and medical stewardship concerning H2 blockers with restriction of their use. Additional measures may include the use of lactoferrin, fluconazole, and nystatin and specific measures to prevent ventilator associated pneumonia.

The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of orally administered Lactobacillus reuteri (L. reuteri) versus nystatin in prevention of fungal colonization and invasive candidiasis in very low birth weight infants.. A prospective, randomized comparative study was conducted in preterm infants with a gestational age of ≤32 weeks and birth weight of ≤1500 g. Patients were randomized into two groups, to receive L. reuteri or nystatin. Skin and stool cultures were performed once a week for colonization and blood cultures for invasive infections. The trial was registered to ClinicalTrials.gov under identifier NCT01531192.. A total of 300 preterm infants were enrolled (n = 150, for each group). Gastrointestinal colonization and skin colonization rates were not significantly different between the groups (18.7% versus 16%, p = 0.54 and 14% versus 12%, p = 0.6, respectively). Invasive candidiasis was detected in two patients of the probiotic group and one patient of the antifungal group. Proven sepsis, feeding intolerance, and duration of hospitalization were significantly lower in the probiotics group than in the antifungal group.. Prophylactic L. reuteri supplementation is as effective as nystatin, and more effective in reducing the incidence of proven sepsis in addition to its favorable effect on feeding intolerance.

Three gastrointestinal tract decontamination regimens were tested in patients with granulopenia: vancomycin 250 mg, tobramycin 75 mg, and colistin 1 million international units (regimen A); vancomycin 125 mg, tobramycin 75 mg, and colistin 1 million IU (regimen B); and colistin 1 million IU (regimen C); nystatin was added to all three regimens. Effectiveness was evaluated by stool organism counts and blood cultures to detect bacterial translocation (passage of bacteria from the intestinal tract to the bloodstream). Regimen C proved insufficiently effective. Regimen A was found to be poorly tolerated by the digestive mucosa. Regimen B was the best treatment since the low dosage of vancomycin proved effective. Nystatin satisfactorily eliminated yeasts.

A prospective, randomized, double-blind study was performed to compare 24 hours and 60 hours of preoperative antibiotic bowel preparation by means of gentamicin + vancomycin + mycostatin. 83 patients undergoing elective colo-rectal operations completed the study (Tablet I), and the two groups proved similar in terms of age, sex, diagnosis, surgical procedures and operation time (Table II). No significant difference in septic complications was found between patients receiving 24 hours and 60 hours of preoperative treatment (Table III). Wound infection occurred significantly more frequently in operations of long duration (Table IV). Cultures made from infected wounds revealed a mixture of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria in half of the cases, whereas pure aerobic or anaerobic infections were equally frequent (Table V).

In a controlled study, the results of peroral preoperative antibiotic bowel preparation administered for 24 vs. 60 hours, respectively, were compared. No differences were found in concentrations of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria or in concentrations of antibiotics in colonic contents. Contamination of the operation field during operation was examined by quantitative culture of irrigation fluid from the peritoneal cavity and subcutaneous tissue. A significant correlation was found between concentrations of bacteria in colonic contents and the degree of contamination in the peritoneal cavity and subcutaneous tissue. A significant correlation was also found between contamination of the operation field and subsequent development of wound infection.

113 patients being treated for acute non-lymphoblastic leukaemia were investigated to determine the effect of suppression of body microbial flora on prevention of infection. They were randomly allocated to a control group or a group which received non-absorbed antibiotics by mouth and topical applications of cutaneous and mucosal antiseptic preparations. The group receiving oral non-absorbed antibiotics had significantly few infections, fewer deaths from infection, fewer pyrexial episodes, and consequently received less systemic antibiotic therapy than the controls.

Catheter-associated Candida bloodstream infections are a common and serious problem in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Several prophylactic regimens have been developed including oral administration of nonabsorbable antifungals and intravenous infusions. No reports to date have employed a topical regimen.. To evaluate the effectiveness of topical nystatin cream in preventing catheter-associated Candida sepsis.. A retrospective descriptive design was used to determine the incidence of Candida sepsis in extremely low-birth weight (ELBW, <1000 g at birth) infants who were treated with topical nystatin cream for Candida bloodstream infection prophylaxis between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2010. The electronic medical records of study infants were reviewed to establish the incidence of Candida sepsis.. A total of 464 ELBW infants were admitted to the NICU during the study period. Three infants (0.65%) developed Candida sepsis.. These data demonstrate that a topical nystatin cream protocol is associated with a very low rate of Candida sepsis in ELBW infants with central catheters. The use of this protocol may contribute to a decrease in the morbidity and mortality rate associated with catheter-associated Candida infections in ELBW infants.. Before generalizations can be made as to the safety and efficacy of this protocol as compared to enteral and parenteral prophylactic treatments and in other institutions, large multicenter randomized controlled trials are required.

A comprehensive comparative analysis of the structure-antifungal activity relationships for the series of biosynthetically engineered nystatin analogues and their novel semisynthetic derivatives, as well as amphotericin B (AMB) and its semisynthetic derivatives, was performed. The data obtained revealed the significant influence of the structure of the C-7 to C-10 polyol region on the antifungal activity of these polyene antibiotics. Comparison of positions of hydroxyl groups in the antibiotics and in vitro antifungal activity data showed that the most active are the compounds in which hydroxyl groups are in positions C-8 and C-9 or positions C-7 and C-10. Antibiotics with OH groups at both C-7 and C-9 had the lowest activity. The replacement of the C-16 carboxyl with methyl group did not significantly affect the in vitro antifungal activity of antibiotics without modifications at the amino group of mycosamine. In contrast, the activity of the N-modified derivatives was modulated both by the presence of CH3 or COOH group in the position C-16 and by the structure of the modifying substituent. The most active compounds were tested in vivo to determine the maximum tolerated doses and antifungal activity on the model of candidosis sepsis in leukopenic mice (cyclophosphamide-induced). Study of our library of semisynthetic polyene antibiotics led to the discovery of compounds, namely, N-(L-lysyl)-BSG005 (compound 3n) and, especially, L-glutamate of 2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl amide of S44HP (compound 2j), with high antifungal activity that were comparable in in vitro and in vivo tests to AMB and that have better toxicological properties.

Mono- and disubstituted novel derivatives of the heptaene nystatin analog 28,29-didehydronystatin A(1) (S44HP, 1) were obtained by chemical modification of the exocyclic C-16 carboxyl and/or an amino group of mycosamine moiety. The strategy of preparation of mono- and double-modified polyene macrolides was based on the use of intermediate hydrophobic N-Fmoc (9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl) derivatives that facilitated the procedures of isolation and purification of new compounds. The antifungal activity of the new derivatives was first tested in vitro against yeasts and filamentous fungi, allowing the selection of the most active compounds that were subsequently tested for acute toxicity in mice. 2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethylamide of 1 (2) and 2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethylamide of N-fructopyranosyl-28,29-didehydronystatin A(1) (2a) were then selected for further evaluation in a mouse model of disseminated candidosis, and showed high efficacy while being considerably less toxic than amphotericin B (AmB). The compound with improved water solubility (2G, L-glutamic acid salt of 2) showed better chemotherapeutic activity than AmB in the mouse model of candidosis sepsis on a leucopenic background. Very low antifungal effect was seen after treatment with AmB, even if it was used in maximum tolerated dose (2 mg kg(-1)). Unlike AmB, compound 2G exhibited high activity in doses from 0.4 up to 4.0 mg kg(-1), despite leucopenic conditions.

The first 25 BMTs at the Royal Liverpool Children's Hospital (Alder Hey) were performed between April 1987 and July 1991. The aim of this report is to evaluate selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) during the first post-BMT month in this series of 14 allografts and 11 autografts. SDD is a method used to abolish carriage of potentially pathogenic microorganisms including yeasts, Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative bacilli (GNB). Chlorhexidine mouth wash was used to decontaminate the oropharynx, and neomycin, colistin (polymyxin E) and nystatin (NEOCON) were given to eradicate gut carriage. Oropharyngeal decontamination was successful in 48% of patients, gut carriage was abolished in 60%, and eradication of the carrier state at both sites was achieved in 33%. A septic response was seen in 76% of children and 36% developed septicaemia (indigenous Gram-positive cocci only). A low carriage index for the target microorganisms during the study manoeuvre of SDD was associated with negative blood cultures (p < 0.01). Acute GVHD occurred in 28% of allografts, but was seen in none of the successfully decontaminated children (p < 0.05). It is concluded that septicaemia from yeasts and GNB, but not the septic response, were successfully prevented by SDD.

Infection in the granulocytopenic patient is often life-threatening, and the frequency and severity of infection are increased regardless of the cause of leukocyte suppression. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole plus nystatin is known to be effective in preventing colonization and infection by the primary pathogens responsible for the morbidity and mortality associated with granulocytopenia. When treating granulocytopenic patients, clinicians should use proper barrier techniques to minimize nosocomial colonization. When foci of oral infection are present or bacteremia is predictable, appropriate antibiotics should be prescribed.

Eighty-three patients with 117 episodes of candidemia were reviewed to examine the clinically significant variables and the results of treatment for this problem. Mortality was 52%. Patients who had bacteremia either synchronously or metachronously in association with Candida species had poorer survival rates. Staphylococcal and enterococcal species were the most frequently associated bacteria. Patients with Candida parapsilosis had better survival rates than patients with other species. Portals of entry for fungemia were catheters, wounds, the urinary tract, and the peritoneal cavity, but were undefined in 54% of patients. Antifungal chemotherapy could not be identified as affecting the outcome in these patients. It is suggested that candidemia in most patients represents a failure of host defense, and that septicemia of either bacteria or fungi may arise from the gastrointestinal tract in critically ill, immunocompromised patients.

No significant difference was seen in the incidence of infections between subjects receiving complete, selective and no decontamination aimed at the intestinal microflora in studies evaluating the preventative potential against endogenous infections in the compromised host maintained under protective isolation. This finding is reported together with a report of Serratia marcescens septicemia in a patient with leukemia who was given antibiotics systemically and kept under protective isolation. The establishment of opportunistic infections in relation to these results is discussed in terms of the biological phenomena of the interaction between the intestinal flora and the host, and between the species comprising the intestinal flora.

Quantitative bacterial cultures were carried out in 137 gastric aspirates of 52 neonates with gastrostomies due to intestinal malformations. In 28% there was no growth of any organism, in 72% we found one to four bacterial species. Most often enterobacteriaceae, enterococci, pseudomonas aeruginosa, staphylococcus epidermidis and candida albicans could be cultured. We could not find any influence of systemic antibiotic therapy on bacterial colonization of the stomach. On the other hand nystatin given orally significantly decreased colonization by candida albicans. Different types of formulas or breast milk had no influence on types of species isolated. Clinically it was interesting to note that 12/52 children developed diarrhea and that 6 newborns developed septicaemia caused by the same organisms as we had found in elevated numbers in their gastric aspirates.

A regimen of oral non-absorbable prophylactic antibiotics (kanamycin-vancomycin-nystatin) was given to nine severely neutropaenic leukaemic patients on cytotoxic therapy (11 courses), in conjunction with isolation procedures. An appreciable decrease in faecal organisms, especially anaerobes, was apparent after 48 h of commencing the course, and most bacteria had disappeared from the stool after five days. There were three episodes of septicaemia, all with enteric organisms, whilst on these antibiotics; one proved fatal. The emergence of resistance to aminoglycosides in faecal flora, notably Klebsiella, in 6/11 courses constituted a major problem in the use of such prophylaxis.

The new therapeutic methods based on antibiotics, corticosteroids and immunosuppressors and the new medicosurgical techniques (catheters, monitoring in intensive-care units, open-heart surgery) modify the host, favorise the adaptation and introduction f endogenous and exogenous yeast-like fungi and thus create a new pathology characterized by deep visceral or septicemic infections due to yeasts belonging to the genera Candida, Torulopsis, Cryptococcus, Trichosporon, Rhodotorula, and Saccharomyces. The pathological aspects are analyzed and therapy is suggested in the light of new findings on polyenes (nystatine, amphotericine B), 5-fluorocytosine, imidazole, derivatives (miconazole, econazole) considering their association in function of synergy or antagonism possibilities.

An oral prophylactic antibiotic regimen (neomycin-erythromycin-nystatin) aimed at suppression of the bowel flora was utilized in 20 patients with thermal injury treated in a laminar flow burn unit with strict sterile technique and reverse isolation. The regimen was utilized for an average of 24 days. Surface cultures were obtained twice weekly from multiple areas of the burn wound, and burn wound biopsies were performed one to two times weekly. These patients were compared prospectively with a group of 10 patients treated in otherwise identical fashion, save for the omission of the antibiotic suppressive regimen. Bacterial colonization of the burn wound occurred an average of 19 days after admission in the group receiving antibiotics compared to 4 days after admission in the control group (p less than 0.01). Positive burn biopsies (more than 10(5) bacteria per gm of tissue) were observed twice as often in the group not receiving antibiotics (p less than 0.16) as were infectious complications of several types: bacteremia, burn wound sepsis, urinary tract infections, pneumonitis, cellulitis (0.10 less than p less than 0.20). Staphylococcal or fungal overgrowth were not encountered in the patients receiving prophylactic antibiotics, nor was there an adverse effect on serum creatinine levels with the prolonged use of neomycin.

21 of 41 patients developed clinically manifest or systemic Candida albicans infection 1-36 months after renal transplantation. Asymptomatic candiduria was diagnosed in all patients even before the onset of clinical symptoms. Fungal stomatitis was the most frequent clinical sign, followed by mycotic changes in the respiratory, genito-urinary (vaginitis) and gastro-intestinal tract. In five cases intrahepatic biliary stasis was diagnosed in the course of a Candida albicans septicaemia. In 12 patients with renal transplants it was possible, by treatment with nystatin, clotrimazole, flucytosine, miconazole and amphotericine B to control a generalized or clinically manifest Candida albicans infection. Three died of the septicaemia or meningoencephalitis, six as the result of bacterial superinfections. Inspection of the mouth is an important means of early diagnosing fungal infections. Antimycotic treatment should be started if fungal cultures from urine are repeatedly positive even if the clinical findings are still negative.
