Contamination of processed beef foods such as abon can be caused by various types of microbes, one of which is Staphylococcus aureus. Staphylococcus aureus can cause various infections, both on the skin, gastrointestinal tract, or endocarditis. The objective of this research was to determine the presence of Staphylococcus aureus in beef abon sold in Pahing Market, Kediri. Abon used is non-branded beef abon which is as many as 10 samples obtained by total sampling technique. Samples were tested by observation of colony morphology through Gram staining, mannitol fermentation test, catalase and coagulase test, and acetoin test. The samples were inoculated on Broth NaCl (ink. 24 hour-37°C), then inoculated on MSA (ink. 24 hour-37°C), and VP (ink. 2x24 hours-37°C). Catalase and coagulase tests were carried out by taking colonies on MSA media. The results showed that there were 9 abon samples contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus as indicated by Gram positive staining results, positive (perfect) mannitol fermentation, and positive acetoin, catalase, and coagulase test. The causes of contamination are contaminated abon ingredients, the manufacturing process using less sterile tools, poor handling and processing, processing food with dirty hands, food stored without cover, sick food processors, and dirty markets

Background: Generally, gram-negative bacteria are the most common uropathogenic bacteria causing UTI, as per recent ndings gram-positive bacteria also equally responsible for the UTI. As they have a plethora of pathogenic virulence factors that are highly responsible to give rise to severe UTI infection. Moreover, a betalactamase-producing gram-positive organism such as Staphylococcus aureus is often associated with high resistance to a wide class of antibiotics. There are few studies regarding the UTI infection-causing by the multi-drug resistant strain of Staph aureus called MRSA in Tripura Northeast India. This study aimed to determine the proportion of MRSA causing UTI in Tertiary care hospitals at Agartala Tripura. Materials and method – Mid-stream urine specimens were collected from patients suspected to be having UTI. Well, the mixed sample of urine was inoculated on specic culture media and all the isolates were identied as staphylococci by Gram staining, catalase test, coagulase test, and other biochemical reactions required for the identication of S.aureus and as per the CLSI guidelines we have studied the antibiogram of S.aureus and we have detected the MRSA by cefoxitin disc diffusion method. Result: in our present study 650 midstream urine samples were collected and processed. Out of the total 650 urine samples 91(14%) yielded growth on culture media and out of the 91 positive cases Staphylococcus aureus infected UTI cases were 12(13%) and among the 12 S.aureus positive isolates 6(50%) isolates were MSSA and other 6(50%) isolates were MRSA. Here in our study vancomycin(100%), doxycycline(83%), Nitrofurantoin(100%), Linezolid(83%) found to be very effective drugs for the treatment of MRSA, and most importantly here in this region of northeast only 6.5% of the total UTI patients affected by the MRSA which means the ratio of UTI infection by MRSA is low in this region. CONCLUSION: This study will be useful to update the policy of the empirical drugs in our hospital and at the same time, it will also help to control the unnecessary use of antibiotics to treat UTI patients

Among urgent surgical diseases of abdominal cavity, an acute intestinal obstruction is the most difficult to be diagnosed and treated. Leading factor, determining the development of pathophysiological processes is considered to be the progressive manifestations of enteric insufficiency syndrome, resulting in intestinal barrier impairment, negative changes in ecology of intestinal flora, increased endotoxins. To identify the small intestine microflora in acute intestinal obstruction and determine the role of dysbiotic disorders in clinical manifestations of main pathological process, a study was conducted in 60 patients with mechanical intestinal obstruction. The small intestine has a relatively rare microflora, consisting mainly of gram−positive facultative aerobic microorganisms, streptococci, lactobacilli. The distal ileum in nearly 30−55 % of healthy people contains scanty microflora, and yet the flora of this area differs from the microbial population of the higher gastrointestinal tract due to higher concentration of gram−negative bacteria. Optional−anaerobic coliform bacilli, anaerobic bifidobacteria and fusobacteria, bacteroids, the number of which starts exceeding the one of gram−positive species, are presented in significant quantities. Distal to the ileocecal valve there are significant changes in the microflora quantitative and species composition. Obligatory anaerobic bacteria become the predominant part of microflora, exceeding the number of aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria. The bacterial flora in different parts of gastrointestinal tract has its own specifics and is quite constant, as a result of the interaction of many factors, regulating the bacterial population in small intestine. The most important among them are: acidity of gastric juice, normal peristaltic activity of the intestine, bacterial interactions and immune mechanisms. Disorders of the intestine motor and evacuation function with its obstruction lead to slow passage of the chyme and contamination of the upper gastrointestinal tract with new types of microbes. There is a syndrome of small intestine excessive colonization, which means an increased concentration of bacterial populations in it, similar in species composition to the colon microflora. Pathological intra−intestinal contents become a source of endogenous infection and re−infection of the patient, leads to internal digestive disorders, which is manifested by syndrome of malabsorption of proteins, carbohydrates and vitamins. Key words: acute intestinal obstruction, small intestinal microflora, conditionally pathogenic microorganisms, intestinal biocenosis.

Abstract Background Pharmacist-driven protocols for utilization of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) nares screenings have shown to decrease duration of empiric gram-positive therapy and rates of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with respiratory infections. This study evaluated the impact of a pharmacist-driven MRSA nares screening protocol on duration of vancomycin or linezolid therapy (DT) in respiratory infections. Methods Patients aged 18 years and older with a medication order of vancomycin or linezolid for respiratory indication(s) were included. The MRSA nares screening protocol went into effect in October 2019. The protocol allowed pharmacists to order an MRSA nares polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for included patients, while the Antimicrobial Stewardship Program (ASP) made therapeutic recommendations for de-escalation of empiric gram-positive coverage based on negative MRSA nares screenings, if clinically appropriate. Data for the pre-intervention group was collected retrospectively for the months of October 2018 to March 2019. The post-intervention group data was collected prospectively for the months of October 2019 to March 2020. Results Ninety-seven patients were evaluated within both the pre-intervention group (n = 50) and post-intervention group (n = 57). Outcomes for DT (38.2 hours vs. 30.9 hours, P = 0.601) and AKI (20% vs. 14%, P = 0.4105) were not different before and after protocol implementation. A subgroup analysis revealed a significant reduction in DT within the pre- and post-MRSA PCR groups (38.2 hours vs. 24.8 hours, P = 0.0065) when pharmacist recommendations for de-escalation were accepted. Conclusion A pharmacist-driven MRSA nares screening protocol did not affect the duration of gram-positive therapy for respiratory indications. However, there was a reduction in DT when pharmacist-driven recommendations were accepted. Disclosures All Authors: No reported disclosures

Background: To provide a standardized, risk-adjusted method for summarizing antimicrobial use (AU), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention developed the standardized antimicrobial administration ratio, an observed-to-predicted use ratio in which predicted use is estimated from a statistical model accounting for patient locations and hospital characteristics. The infection burden, which could drive AU, was not available for assessment. To inform AU risk adjustment, we evaluated the relationship between the burden of drug-resistant gram-positive infections and the use of anti-MRSA agents. Methods: We analyzed data from acute-care hospitals that reported ≥10 months of hospital-wide AU and microbiologic data to the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) from January 2018 through June 2019. Hospital infection burden was estimated using the prevalence of deduplicated positive cultures per 1,000 admissions. Eligible cultures included blood and lower respiratory specimens that yielded oxacillin/cefoxitin–resistant Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and ampicillin-nonsusceptible enterococci, and cerebrospinal fluid that yielded SA. The anti-MRSA use rate is the total antimicrobial days of ceftaroline, dalbavancin, daptomycin, linezolid, oritavancin, quinupristin/dalfopristin, tedizolid, telavancin, and intravenous vancomycin per 1,000 days patients were present. AU rates were modeled using negative binomial regression assessing its association with infection burden and hospital characteristics. Results: Among 182 hospitals, the median (interquartile range, IQR) of anti-MRSA use rate was 86.3 (59.9–105.0), and the median (IQR) prevalence of drug-resistant gram-positive infections was 3.4 (2.1–4.8). Higher prevalence of drug-resistant gram-positive infections was associated with higher use of anti-MRSA agents after adjusting for facility type and percentage of beds in intensive care units (Table 1). Number of hospital beds, average length of stay, and medical school affiliation were nonsignificant. Conclusions: Prevalence of drug-resistant gram-positive infections was independently associated with the use of anti-MRSA agents. Infection burden should be used for risk adjustment in predicting the use of anti-MRSA agents. To make this possible, we recommend that hospitals reporting to NHSN’s AU Option also report microbiologic culture results.Funding: NoneDisclosures: None
