Identification and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of Staphylococcus spp. isolated from canine chronic otitis externa

Abstract: Swab samples obtained from 96 dogs with chronic otitis externa were cultured for the isolation of Staphylococcus species. Of 57 staphylococcal strains, 41 (72%) were coagulase-negative (CNS). The identification of staphylococci strains was made by standard procedures for the routine identification of staphylococci in clinical practice. S. sciuri was the most frequent species isolated (22.8%) from chronic otitis externa in dogs followed by S. intermedius (12.3%), S. auricularis (10.5%) and S. aureus (8.8%). Thr… Show more

“…We often found staphylococci which have been more frequently described in other species of livestock, particularly cattle, pigs, carnivores, birds (S. chromogenes, S. vitulinus, S. intermedius, S. hyicus, S. sciuri, S. xylosus;Songer and Post 2005). Species such as S. delphini and S. auricularis were also detected (Silva 2001;Stull et al 2014). The situation for streptococci was not surprising, as equine species, such as S. equi ssp.…”

“…The same authors include S. chromogenes, S. sciuri and S. equorums in the normal microflora of the skin and mucous membranes of cattle, pigs, horses and squirrels. Other authors have described infections of animals caused by rare coagulase-negative staphylococci, such as S. auricularis in canine otitis (Silva 2001).…”

“…Para SCP, os melhores resultados foram obtidos com cefoxitina, amoxicilinaácido clavulânico, imipenem, netilmicina e cefotaxima. Os resultados de susceptibilidade foram semelhantes a outros citados na literatura para penicilina G (Silva, 2001), ampicilina (Lilenbaum et al, 2000), amoxicilina-ácido clavulânico/ imipenem/ quinolonas (Junco e Barrasa, 2002) e cefalosporinas (GuedejaMarrom et al, 1998). Neste trabalho observaram-se, ainda, 33,3% de Staphylococcus (SCP e SCN) resistentes à oxacilina.…”

“…A OE é a mais amplamente estudada, pois é uma das enfermidades mais comuns encontradas na rotina veterinária de animais de pequeno porte e estimase que esta doença afete entre 5 a 20% dos cães atendidos (Penna et al, 2009, Malayeri et al, 2010. É uma doença que possui alto percentual de recidiva e capacidade de se tornar crônica após suspensão da terapia, situação que está parcialmente relacionada ao uso indiscriminado de antibióticos sem buscar diagnosticar a causa primária (Silva, 2001). …”

“…A escolha do tratamento deve ser realizada com base na cultura e antibiograma, sendo assim o tratamento de cada animal deve ser realizado individualmente, pois pode diferir dependendo do tipo de bactéria presente em cada caso (Silva, 2001). Segundo Jacobson (2002) deve-se realizar a limpeza do conduto auditivo e utilizar terapia antimicrobiana tópica e/ou sistêmica quando necessário.…”
