Epidemiology of Acinetobacter spp.: Surveillance and Management of Outbreaks

Marie‐Laure Joly‐Guillou, C. Brun‐Buisson

This chapter provides an integrated approach to understanding the hospital epidemiology of Acinetobacter spp. by defining the best research methods for identifying routes of cross-infection involved in such outbreaks. Acinetobacter spp. are ubiquitous organisms in nature, and can be obtained easily from …

Nosocomial Pneumonia Caused by Acinetobacter spp.

Jean Chastre, Jean‐Louis Trouillet, Albert Vuagnat, Marie‐Laure Joly‐Guillou

Until 1970, clinicians had generally ignored evidence that Acinetobacter spp. could be the microbiological cause of pneumonia, and considered these organisms to be of relatively low virulence in humans. This chapter reviews published studies on the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of nosocomial …

Introduction — History and Importance of Acinetobacter spp., Role in Infections, Treatment and Cost Implications

E Bergogne-Bérézin, Marie‐Laure Joly‐Guillou, K. J. Towner

There is increasing interest in developed countries in the control of hospital-acquired infection. Amongst nosocomial pathogens, multiple resistant Gram-negative bacilli have proved to be a particular problem over the last 30 years. The therapeutic introduction of early antibiotics, mainly to control Gram-positive …

Infectious Diseases 2015 : Evaluation of interaction mechanisms between Acinetobacter baumannii bacteria and lipidic nanocapsules by flow cytometry - Angelique Montagu - University of Angers

Angélique Montagu, Marie‐Laure Joly‐Guillou, Catherine Guillet, Jérôme Bejaud et autres

Acinetobacter baumannii is an important nosocomial pathogen, resistant to many commonly-used antibiotics. Considering the limited number of antibiotics in development, interesting strategies could lay on the use of natural resources especially essential oils (EOs). An interesting strategy underlined the antibacterial potential of …

Mouse model of Colonization of the Digestive Tract with Acinetobacter Baumannii and Subsequent Pneumonia

Noémie Coron, Silvie Pavlí­čková, Angélique Godefroy, Hélène Pailhories et autres

AIM: Implementing a mouse model of Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) digestive colonization and studying the propensity of an intestinal reservoir of AB to be at the origin of pneumonia. MATERIALS & METHODS: After a disruption of the digestive flora by piperacillin-tazobactam, two multidrug-resistant …
