Campylobacter jejuni infections

Worldwide 5-6 million children die each year of diarrheal diseases. Symptoms of GTI are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea (in case of Shigella and Entamoeba often bloody), abdominal pain and fever. Causal associations have been found between Campylobacter jejuni infections and subsequent Guillain-Barrd syndrome and between enterohem-orrhagic Escherichia coli colitis and the hemolytic uremic syndrome. In severe or complicated cases a faeces culture (and in case of high fever also two blood cultures) should be taken prior to therapy. [Pg.526]

The issue, however, is real because it was considered of such magnitude that the US Food and Drug Administration banned the use of the fluoroquinolone, enrofloxacin, for use in poultry in 2006 because of the supposed links with fluoroquinolone resistance in Campylobacter jejuni infections in man. It is interesting to note that this ban seemingly has had no effect on fluoroquinolone resistance in Campylobacter jejuni isolated from human cases of infection nor from isolates from chickens, as detailed by the NARMS 2009 Executive Report (Table 17.1). ... [Pg.423]
