Antimicrobial susceptibility testing of 258N. gonorrhoeaeisolates by Etest determined that 60.1% were MDR while 5% strains had decreased susceptibility to currently recommended extended-spectrum cephalosporins (ESCs). Among these, 84.5% MDR and 76.9% strains having decreased susceptibility to ESCs were susceptible to gentamicin. No MDR isolate was resistant to gentamicin. Thesein vitroresults suggest that gentamicin might be an effective treatment option for the MDR strains and in dual therapy for gonorrhea. However, further research regarding the clinical treatment outcomes is essential.

Many hospitals are still setting up acute stroke thrombolysis services, often delayed by fears over workload. However, there are few data on how many patients require urgent assessment before one is treated. We prospectively studied all referrals to the 24-hour stroke thrombolysis service, February 2009 – January 2010, in Southampton General Hospital. 128 patients were referred to the thrombolysis team and 20 received thrombolysis. The most common reasons for treatment exclusion were: stroke severity (37%), time from onset (26%) or CT findings (15%). Approximately six patients required urgent assessment by the thrombolysis team for every one treated. These data are crucial to inform service planning.
