High rates of resistance to cephalosporins among viridans-group streptococci causing bacteraemia in neutropenic cancer patients

1 Jan 2001

Abstract excerpt

The prevalence of resistance to cephalosporins among viridans-group streptococci causing 88 (18%) cases among 485 bacteraemias in neutropenic cancer patients was studied. Rates of resistance to ceftriaxone, ceftazidime, cefpirome and cefepime were 22, 53, 14 and 34%, respectively. Previous administration of beta-lactam therapy was the only factor significantly associated with bacteraemia due to...
