Microbiological characteristics and outcomes of children with pleural empyema admitted to a tertiary hospital in southeast China, 2009-2018
CONCLUSIONS: Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae were the leading cause of pleural empyema. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing revealed a high percentage of resistance against penicillin while vancomycin provided 100% coverage for these pathogens. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the third most common pathogen mainly detected in those under 3 years old in the summer and have shown to be susceptible to ceftazidime. The prognosis is good after appropriate therapy.PMID:35023649 | DOI:10.24953/turkjped.2021.06.007 (Source: The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics)
