This study evaluated the antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella enterica strains from layer poultry farms in central Ecuador isolated during 2017. geographical area is responsible for around 60% total domestic egg production, yet, as 2019, no reports had been published on phenotypic and genotypic antibiotic patterns this area.Thirty-one isolates obtained 2017 were evaluated. The profiles exhibited considerable differences serovar sample origin, grouping into nine clades by phenotype. S....
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major health threat for public and animal in the twenty-first century. In Ecuador, antibiotics have been used by poultry industry decades resulting presence of multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria meat production chain, with consequent risk health. This study evaluated prevalence ESBL/AmpC mcr genes third-generation cephalosporin-resistant Escherichia coli (3GC-R E. ) isolated from broiler farms (animal component), carcasses (food human enteritis (human...
The discharge of untreated or partially treated wastewater can have detrimental impacts on the quality water bodies, posing a significant threat to public health and environment. In Ecuador, previous research indicates high prevalence antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacteria in surface waters affected by human activities, including irrigation channels. this study, we analyzed sediment samples collected from an channel utilized for agricultural purposes northern using microbiological techniques...
To compare the epidemiology of antimicrobial resistance in bacteria isolated from inpatient and outpatient samples Ecuador.A secondary analysis was done data on samples. Data were taken 2018 national surveillance database National Reference Center for Antimicrobial Resistance. The variables included were: age, sex, versus setting, type specimen, bacterial species identified, pattern to antibiotics, geographic area.Data 57 305 isolates study: 48.8% hospitalized patients, 55.7% women, 60.1%...
Bordetella pertussis is the causative agent of pertussis, which mainly affects unvaccinated children, while parapertussis causes a disease presenting clinical characteristics that are indistinguishable from whooping cough. Despite high vaccination coverage, remains public health concern worldwide, with approximately 140 000 cases reported annually. Here we determined prevalence B. and infection among infants under one year age by polymerase chain reaction (PCR); our aim being to identify...
Antimicrobial resistance is currently considered a public health threat. Carbapenems are antimicrobials for hospital use, and Enterobacterales resistant to these β-lactams have spread alarmingly in recent years, especially those that cause care-associated infections. The
Introduction: bloodstream infections are one of the leading causes mortality in children and adults worldwide. Blood cultures essential diagnostic tests for identifying microorganisms guiding antimicrobial treatment. However, sample contamination reduces accuracy due to introduction contaminating organisms during collection or patient's clinical condition.Methods: a systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines on studies found PubMed, Scielo, Scopus, Web Science, BVS,...
Introduction: Acinetobacter baaumannii complex is a pathogen that causes nosocomial infections in immunocompromised patients, the microorganism resistant to carbapenemics and difficult control health units. Methods: this literature review on resistance of Latin America. Different databases were used: Pubmed, Google Scholar, Scielo, Dialnet Redalyc, for selection articles inclusion exclusion criteria applied. In addition, t-Student test was used find significant values. Results: A. baumannii...
Introducción Las bacterias multirresistentes han ido aumentando con el pasar de los años, por lo que presentan una problemática a nivel global, principalmente la resistencia betalactámicos en entornos hospitalarios y comunitarios. betalactamasas espectro extendido (BLEE) son enzimas inactivan antibióticos betalactámicos, como penicilinas, cefalosporinas (primera cuarta generación) monobactams. Estas se encuentran mayor frecuencia cepas Enterobacterales. Objetivos El objetivo es caracterizar...
Objective: this study aimed to determine the presence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in nosocomial infections Latin America and analyze its frequency tendency America. Methods: is a literature review; it was carried out through exhaustive research different databases, Analytical descriptive cohort studies, meta-analysis, some clinical trials related caused by K. genes responsible for resistance were included. Results: twenty-two articles selected from databases American...

Las infecciones del tracto urinario (ITU) son comunes tanto en entornos comunitarios como hospitalarios, siendo Escherichia coli, el agente causal 80% de estas infecciones, este microorganismo ha desarrollado mecanismos resistencia, la producción Beta-lactamasas espectro extendido (BLEE) que tienen capacidad hidrolizar cefalosporinas primera, segunda, tercera, cuarta generación y aztreonam. El objetivo esta investigación es determinar prevalencia patógeno, pruebas laboratorio utilizadas,...
Las lagunas de alta montaña Ecuador son muy poco estudiadas. Siendo ecosistemas frágiles, están sujetos a variaciones en las características fisicoquímicas sus aguas que influyen condiciones biológicas y ecológicas. En este contexto, se realizó la investigación con finalidad conocer calidad fisicoquímica laguna Limpiopungo, situada provincia Cotopaxi, una altura 3800 m.s.n.m. Se realizaron mediciones los parámetros fisicoquímicos como conductividad eléctrica, pH, sólidos totales disueltos,...
Introducción: los concentrados plaquetarios (CPQ) son hemocomponentes lábiles afectados por varios factores, desde el método de obtención hasta las condiciones almacenamiento, que provocan una paulatina pérdida funcionalidad, lo es necesario evaluar parámetros calidad garanticen la viabilidad plaquetas durante días con propósito monitorear mantenimiento características funcionales plaquetas. Materiales y métodos: estudio descriptivo transversal, un tamaño muestral 64 CPQ,...
