RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Elizabethkingia meningoseptica: emerging multidrug resistance in a nosocomial pathogen JF BMJ Case Reports FD BMJ Publishing Group Ltd SP bcr-2017-221076 DO 10.1136/bcr-2017-221076 VO 2017 A1 Sairam Raghavan A1 Biji Thomas A1 B A Shastry YR 2017 UL http://casereports.bmj.com/content/2017/bcr-2017-221076.abstract AB A 46-year-old male patient presented with complaints of burning micturition for 2 days. Initial history, physical examination and laboratory investigations were consistent with the diagnosis of congestive cardiac failure (CCF) and concomitant urinary tract infection. CCF was treated with diuretics and a urine culture/sensitivity (C/S) was sent which returned growing Elizabethkingia meningoseptica resistant to all tested drugs. Intravenous cefotaxime which had been started empirically 3 days earlier was withheld at this point, and a repeat urine C/S was sent revealing resistance to all tested drugs (including reserved drugs) barring minocycline. The patient was treated with oral minocycline for 14 days after which he was symptomatically better with sterile urine. The patient was subsequently discharged.
