INTRODUCTION: Escherichia coli (E.coli), a common aero-anaerobic commensal intestinal bacterium, is the most common Enterobacteriaceae involved in hospital acquired pneumonia (HAP) and ventilator acquired pneumonia. However, the information on E. coli mediated lung infections and relevant pathophysiology is limited (1-2).

Streptococcus Species. S. pneumoniae is the most common bacterium isolated from patients with CAP. It is a saprophyte of the respiratory tract, which can easily proliferate as soon as natural defenses decline (as with increasing age, alcoholism, diabetes, smoking, or immunosuppression).

29 maj 2023 · E. coli pneumonia is usually thought of as a nosocomial infection occurring in patients with risk factors such as aspiration or mechanical ventilation [2, 3]. In contrast, the propensity to cause community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is under-recognized.
17 gru 2021 · Conclusions: E. coli is an important cause of severe CAP; with mortality that was higher than pneumococcal pneumonia but similar to other gram-negative pneumonias. The rate of fluoroquinolone resistance was high, and empiric fluoroquinolones should be used with caution in these patients.
13 lip 2023 · E. coli is a major cause of nosocomial infections, including catheter-associated UTIs and ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). [5] . E. coli can also be found in soil, on vegetables, and in water, as well as in undercooked meats. Pathogenic strains cause intestinal illness in humans when ingested. Go to: Epidemiology.

26 lis 2018 · Escherichia coli has been thought to be an uncommon cause of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Large epidemiological data on E. coli CAP (E-CAP) and its comparison to pneumococcal CAP (P-CAP) are lacking. Methods.
