Catheter associated multi drug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infection management with Elores in complicated neurogenic bladder case

M K Singh

Abstract :

Neurogenic bladder leads to urological complications like urinary incontinence, vesicourethral reflux and recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). High prevalence of resistant Gram negative pathogen induced catheter–associated bacteriuria with increased morbidity and mortality are reported in patients of neurogenic bladder caused by spinal cord injury. Predominant reason for rising resistance is prolonged or repeated exposure to antimicrobial agents causing selection pressure. The common multi drug resistant (MDR) Gram negative pathogens are E. coli, Pseudomonas spp., A. baumannii, K. pneumoniae and Enterococcus. Here we are discussing a case of MDR Klebsiella pneumoniae induced cUTI in a patient with neurogenic bladder successfully treated with Elores (ceftriaxone+sulbactam+disodium edetate) an Antibiotic Adjuvant Entity
