“…Some species have been recognized as opportunistic pathogens causing hospital-associated and community-associated infections in humans [18,25]. The importance of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) in veterinary medicine is increasing, and some CNS species have been implicated in different clinical cases of various animal species [24,25,30].…”

“…A urocultura, bem como testes de susceptibilidade a antibimicrobianos são essenciais para o estabelecimento de um diagnóstico definitivo e para a indicação do medicamento adequado (Penna et al, 2010;Dias, 2011). No presente estudo os resultados dos testes de susceptibilidade aos antimicrobianos, apresentam para Escherichia coli, a maior taxa de resistência para Clindamicina (0/9).…”

“…As Infecções de Trato Urinário (ITUs) destacam-se como as infecções mais prevalentes na população canina, e estão entre as mais comuns indicações de antibioticoterapia (Gatoria et al, 2006;Ball et al, 2008;Penna et al, 2010;Rowlands et al, 2011). As fêmeas são mais acometidas que os machos.…”

“…Dentre as bactérias, a maior frequência deve-se aos bacilos gram negativos, como Escherichia coli, Proteus spp., Klebsiella spp., Enterobacter spp. e entre os cocos gram positivos, os predominante são: Streptococcus spp., Staphylococcus aureus e S. pseudintermedius (Gatoria et al, 2006;Siqueira et al, 2008;Penna et al, 2010). Contudo, o patógeno mais comumente encontrados nas ITUs, é a Escherichia coli (Siqueira et al, 2008).…”

“…O diagnóstico presuntivo pode ser realizado pela associação de sinais clínicos e baciloscopia de urina, mas a confirmação do agente e o perfil de susceptibilidade aos antimicrobianos são essenciais à indicação para a melhor opção terapêutica (Çetin et al, 2003;Penna et al, 2010, Weese et al, 2011. A antibioticoterapia empírica e o uso indiscriminado desses medicamentos na clínica veterinária contribuem para o aumento da resistência, infecções de repetição e complicações (Pereira et al, 2009;Ishii et al, 2011;Weese et al, 2011).…”

a. MSc -Curso de Medicina Veterinária RESUMO -As Infecções do Trato Urinário (ITUs), ocorrem em aproximadamente 14% dos cães, e estão entre as mais comuns indicações de antibioticoterapia. A etiologia é variável, com maior predomínio de bactérias. Realizamos um levantamento sobre a prevalência de uropatógenos em ITUs de uma população canina, atendida no Hospital Veterinário "Dr. Halim Atique", entre janeiro de 2006 e abril de 2012. Foi realizada a análise de prontuário para coleta de dados dos animais. Dos 358 avaliados, em 44,72% as culturas foram positivas ao crescimento de microrganismos. Quanto ao isolamento, a frequência de Escherichia coli foi de 37,64%; Staphylococcus spp. de 19,66%, entre outros. O maior isolamento bacteriano foi descrito na faixa etária acima de 84 meses, sendo a mais prevalente entre machos (n=37) e fêmeas (n=50). Essa faixa etária também foi estatisticamente significante tanto para a presença de infecção urinária em animais Sem Raça Definida (p=0,009). Houve uma maior resistência da Escherichia coli para Clindamicina (100%); Staphylococcus spp a Ampicilina (82,14%). Os resultados obtidos apontam para a importância do diagnóstico laboratorial com definição do agente etiológico, e assim para realização de melhores condutas terapêuticas.

ITUs have variable etiology, with a higher prevalence of bacteria. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of uropathogens in ITUs in a canine population, assisted at the Veterinary Hospital "Dr. Halim Atique", between January 2006 and April 2012. The analysis was performed based on paper and electronic records, such as gender, age and race of affected animals. Later, a test for susceptibility to antimicrobial agents and description of etiologic agents was performed. Of the 358 evaluated (44.72 %) cultures were positive for the growth of microorganisms. In relation to the insulation, the frequency of Escherichia coli was 37.64 %; Staphylococcus spp. of 19.66 % among others. The largest bacterial isolation was described in the age group above 84 months, being the most prevalent among males (n= 37) and female (n= 50), the age group above 84 months was also statistically significant for both the presence of urinary infection in animals Breed (p=0.009). There was a higher resistance of Escherichia coli to Clindamycin (100 %), Staphylococcus spp to Ampicillin (82.14 %). The results point to the importance of laboratory diagnostic to definition of the etiologic agent, and thus for the realization of better therapeutic approaches.

In this study, we demonstrate the antibacterial activity of P128 on Staphylococcus isolates responsible for canine pyoderma. Eighty seven swabs were collected from dogs suffering from pyoderma and subjected to antibiotic sensitivity test and 46 Staphylococcus strains were isolated and characterized. In-vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing with P128 was done by Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) method as per CLSI guidelines. All the Staphylococci isolated from the dogs with pyoderma, although showed resistance to various antibiotics tested, were lysed by P128. Clinical efficacy of P128 was examined in 17 dogs with pyoderma by application of the P128 hydrogel twice daily for 8 days and the results indicated complete healing of all the lesions of all the dogs under treatment. Under the conditions of this study, P128 was found to be a potent convenient proteinaceous drug for the treatment of staphylococcal pyoderma in dogs.
