Abstract Background Identifying local microbial profiles and antibiotic sensitivities is an important part of antimicrobial stewardship programs in order to prevent overuse antibiotics. The purpose this study was characterize the microbiological isolates from patients hospitalized newborn care unit Hospital Universitario San Ignacio January 1, 2018 December 31, 2022. Total number microorganisms isolated 1 Methods An observational, descriptive, historical single cohort conducted. Positive...
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have profoundly influenced online education, offering innovative approaches to learning and teaching that focus on autonomous work carefully structured curricula. This study examines the relationship between adherence a proposed path in coding MOOC students’ performance course. A key component of MOOCs is processes which are organized activities intended guide learners. However, factors determining their success or failure received little attention. An...
ObjectivesMethicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) represent a major clinical problem in Colombia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk factors associated with MRSA SSTI Colombia.MethodsA multicenter cohort nested case–control design performed. Patients an at least 48 h inpatient care were included. considered case group patients either non-MRSA or Methicillin-susceptible S. (MSSA) control groups. A multivariate logistic regression...
Introduction: There is little information about weigh of factors possibly associated with mortality, in infections caused by Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) Latin America.
 Methodology: A case-controls study nested a historical cohort was performed including all patients CRE diagnosed between June 2013 and December 2018 at Hospital Universitario San Ignacio Bogotá, Colombia. Univariate multivariate analysis were to compare cases mortality within the first month after...
The introduction of MALDI-TOF MS in the clinical microbiology laboratory has modified approaches for identification fungi. Thanks to this tool, it is possible identify cryptic species, which possess critical susceptibility patterns. Clinical strains were identified using MicroScan and systems. Discrepant results from both methods investigated ITS rDNA barcoding. Finally, these isolates also tested vitro susceptibility. percentage agreement between 498 yeast was 93.6% (32 discrepant...
Abstract Background Ralstonia pickettii are aerobic non fermenter gram negative bacilli isolated in water and soil. It is related to nosocomial infection outbreaks considered an opportunistic pathogen. There have been reports due contaminated systems sterile drug solutions which mainly occurs during manufacturing. We present the report of outbreak R. bacteremia secondary a contamination hydromorphone vials. Methods In February 2021 was identified. All isolates were from blood cultures with...
Abstract Background Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) is a serious public health threat. A major epidemic of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae has occurred in Colombia through complex mechanisms blaKPC dissemination. In the framework prospective, observational cohort study (CRACKLE-2), we aimed to characterize genomic epidemiology CRE circulating Colombia. Methods We performed whole-genome sequencing 52 isolates collected from same number patients (July 2017–April...
El objetivo general de este estudio se enfocó en la comprensión práctica torno al desarrollo del proyecto “Explorando talentos”. Los objetivos específicos orientaron hacia reconstrucción experiencia, identificación algunas percepciones los actores y reconocimiento factores que contribuyeron con formación ciudadana motivación escolar. Para el metodología usó enfoque cualitativo sistematización experiencias cuyos resultados mostraron reconocen positivamente estrategia, cual generó no sólo...
Abstract Background The CRE epidemic in Colombia is amplified by horizontal transmission of mobile genetic elements encoding KPC among Enterobacteriaeae and clonal expansion K. pneumoniae group (CG) 258, making the country hyperendemic for CRE. However, clinical impact infections has not been comprehensively assessed. Methods In framework a prospective study assessing epidemiology (CRACKLE II), we report results first 246 patients enrolled 5 Colombian hospitals (from July 2017 to November...
