Treatment of Resistant Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Infections
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 тра 2022
- Infections caused by multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa are considered a major public health problem. Antibiotic options are scarce but new drugs are emerging and more maybe available in the near future. We will discuss this important topic with experts in the field.

why does no one study the effects of ginger compounds on Pseudo.?
I appreciate ALL of your content. Thank you!
I have had Psedo. A. since i was (5) yrs. old but where i live the Drs. have no idea of Psedo. do not listen to patients so I am on my own in the treatment!
Hello Ma'am and Sir. I am an ENT patient and I have done engineering. I'm having a green discharge from
ear for last 5 years for which I am super anxious. They have done puss test which shows pseudomonas aeruginosa. And for that they have prescribed Piperacillin and tazobactam injection like your video describes. Presently I am on those injections. Hope it works man. Just leaving this comment so that anyone with mastoiditis can see this comment.let's see how it goes. I am super nervous dealing with this disease for 10 years.
Good luck
Hi,how can getting of primers of sigma genes ? and how can can getting their role in regulating
the risk factors of clinical Pseudomonas
aeruginosa isolates? My research is "sigma genes and their role in regulating
the risk factors of clinical Pseudomonas
aeruginosa isolates"
Thankd
Great information, but background music is not appreciated, it interferes with understanding the speaker with heavy accent.
My father caught pseudomonas auregenosa in ICU and had septic shock after that. He was treated with colistin and meropenam. He got stable and was shifted to ward but after 2 weaks he again got fever soom after blood transfusion due to low level of hb. He was again started with colistin and meropenam he responded to it and his conscious level got better till today (after 2 days) he again got fever, pulse 140, bp 161/54 and respiratory rat 46 56. It got better after changing the settings on ventilator. Sputum and blood culture is still pending. But do you think there could still be chances of pseudomonas auregenosa in his blood. I hope it get treated
Hey.. how is your dad now??
By the way itis surly now that treatment shoul be combination drugs
I have had this bacteria pseudomonas aeruginosa.. abd probably still do.. because i had it in my bone and when its in the bone its really hard to get out. I broke my arm dec 21 and had surgery dec 29th, 2021, a metal plate with 10 screws was placed my humerus bone. I go back to work in late march of 2022, still have pain but my doctor thinks its iritation from the metal. Im at work for a week until im sent home again cause of arm pain. I go back to physical therapy and still have pain.. fast forward to august 2022 and there's something weird going on with my arm, the pain is worse and the top of the incision is swollen and red. The pain is getting worse. I go to my doctor and he tells me im being admitted ASAP because of a possible infection and that hes taking all the metal out. I had osteomyelitis with the bacteria pseudomonas aeruginosa. Im in the hospital for 6 days but i feel totally fine even though i thought i was going to die after learning about this bacterias mortality rate (%18-%62) i never had a fever and the pain was gone after surgery, my doctor said he was amazed at how high my WBC was (im 29 and healthy) they put me on vancomycin but i was allergic to it then they put me on cefepime. I was sent home with a PICC line and took that antibiotic for a little over a month until i got sick. I had the chills and i was real shaky.. infectious disease suspected a drug fever which it was because as soon as they took the PICC line out i felt way better and was then switched to oral antibiotics for a few weeks. The infection took a little bit of skin and muscle tissue so it left a pretty gnarly scar!. I have my strength back now and have been pain free ever since my 2nd surgery. I have not been on antibiotics since October. What im worried about though is that this bacteria could still be in my bone meaning that it's dormant. If thats the case is there a chance it could just come back one day? Or would i have to break my arm again for that to happen? Next month marks a year since my 2nd surgery and nothing unusual has happened yet.
Your post really scares me. I think this bacteria needs to be treated for far longer than usual. And yes, it's probably dormant. I have it in my bladder and kidney and have drug resistance. I've been treating myself at home because Im afraid to get septic, I don't trust the doctors will figure it out in time. No antibiotics are working. I need IV antibiotics and I know the doctors will mereley put me on a short course not fully eradicating my infection. I dont trust doctors anymore and its really scary.
@amyhabing7281 so far I'm okay I haven't been on any antibiotics since last year. When I had my 2nd surgery to get the metal removed from my arm the infectious disease lady told me what I had and I asked if I was going to lose my arm and she said "no you'll be okay but it could come back" so far it hasn't came back yet. I was the one who found out that I could die from this bacteria after looking it up on Google and seeing a mortality rate of %18 - %62 so when I seen that I was just thinking well damn I guess I'm gonna die then but I felt fine and I was never sick. This bacteria is known to be resistant to many antibiotics but some of them are actually good at fighting it off and I think the cefepime I was on killed it
The bacteria actually does not have a geographical preference.... here in Bolivia the good treatment for SA is very hard to access to due to the high cost it has.... doctors here only fight with cyprofloxaxin and other similar drugs... when it comes to attack the bug harder we cannot afford it!
I need to know if a patient has had pseudomonas and has the resistance and colonization going on but doctors don’t wanna give her the heavy antibiotics due to age and dementia what happens then ?
You could probably sue that hospital

Thank you for this podcast. I am wondering if it is possible for P. Aeruginosa to travel from its original location to another area of the body. I have it in my lungs - stage 4 breast cancer, mets in lungs, radiation damage in lung and esophagus. It is possible that the bacteria could travel to my blood stream or heart.... even stomach?
If it did, it would be a sepsis

God bless you Your Health Professional should be reassuring you + checking you performing tests on you to see if its spread? Has your Surgeons not performed them tests on you?💚💟💛
If only the lady spoke English in a way she is well understood. She seems know the subject very well I assume but nomatter how O try to understand, her strong foreign accent is truely in the way of delivering. Even the subtitles dont translate to deliver a sensible story. I will try to find another video covering this matter.
