El objetivo del estudio fue describir las características epidemiológicas y los factores de riesgo de la bacteriemia por Staphylococcus aureus (BSA) en pacientes adultos atendidos en un hospital de tercer nivel. Se incluyeron 188 pacientes con BSA, 62 % hombres y con una edad media de 64±15,3 años. El 24% eran SARM. La mayoría provenían de servicios médicos (63,8%). El origen más frecuente de la BSA fue nosocomial (56,4%) seguido del relacionado con el ámbito sanitario (RAS) (28,7%) y comunitario (14,9 %). Presentaban enfermedad de base subyacente un 96%, siendo la más frecuente la neoplasia con un total de 65 pacientes (35 %). La enfermedad de base se consideró fatal en 38,3% pacientes, últimamente fatal en 22,3 % y no fatal en 39,4 %. El foco de infección resultó aparente en 151 pacientes (80,3%), siendo el más frecuente el catéter vascular (45,7 %). Presentaron fiebre el 73,9 %, leucocitosis un 44% y bandas en la analítica un 25%. Presentaron complicaciones el 36,2 % de los pacientes con BSA: shock (26,1%) y metástasis sépticas (14,4%). La evolución fue favorable en 126 pacientes (67%), mientras que 52 (27,7%) fallecieron, 43 de ellos (22,9%) en relación con al BSA y en 7 (3,7%) recidivó.

Analitzar la prevalença del MRSA i MRSA ST398 en porcs i en treballadors de granges de porcs. Estudi transversal de prevalença, a la comarca d’Osona. Es van seleccionar 16 granges. Les mostres, s’han processat al laboratori de microbiologia per identificar el MRSA ST398. Van resultar positius per MRSA, 20(64,5%) treballadors. Anys treballats en granges per als positius son 15 anys(p<0’05). De 468 frotis nasals de porcs, van resultar positius per MARSA 7(1,49). La prevalença de MRSA es elevada a la comarca d’Osona. Es importat realitzar un frotis nasal a tots els treballadors de granges de porcs que ingressen a l’Hospital.

bolism. Surgery was needed in 51% of cases and mortality was 42%. Prosthetic valve endocarditis (nine of 60, 13%) predominated in the aortic position and was associated with abscess formation, required surgery, and high mortality (78%). Pacemaker lead IE (seven of 69, 10%) is associated with a better prognosis when antibiotic treatment is combined with surgery. Conclusions:S lugdunensis IE is an uncommon cause of IE, involving mainly native left sided valves, and it is characterised by an aggressive clinical course. Mortality in left sided native valve IE is high but the prognosis has improved in recent years. Surgery has improved survival in left sided IE and, therefore, early surgery should always be considered. Prosthetic valve S lugdunensis IE carries an ominous prognosis.

The effects of the addition to sausage mix of tocopherols (200 mg/kg), a conventional starter culture with or without Staphylococcus carnosus, celery concentrate (CP) (0.23% and 0.46%), and two doses of nitrate (70 and 140 mg/kg expressed as NaNO(3)) on residual nitrate and nitrite amounts, instrumental CIE Lab color, tocol content, oxidative stability, and overall acceptability were studied in fermented dry-cured sausages after ripening and after storage. Nitrate doses were provided by nitrate-rich CP or a chemical grade source. The lower dose complies with the EU requirements governing the maximum for ingoing amounts in organic meat products. Tocopherol addition protected against oxidation, whereas the nitrate dose, nitrate source, or starter culture had little influence on secondary oxidation values. The residual nitrate and nitrite amounts found in the sausages with the lower nitrate dose were within EU-permitted limits for organic meat products and residual nitrate can be further reduced by the presence of the S. carnosus culture. Color measurements were not affected by the CP dose. Product consumer acceptability was not affected negatively by any of the factors studied. As the two nitrate sources behaved similarly for the parameters studied, CP is a useful alternative to chemical ingredients for organic dry-cured sausage production.
