Clinical spectrum of gram-positive infections in lung transplantation
Transplant Infectious Disease, 07/31/09
Gupta MR et al. – GP organisms were responsible for infections in 40% of lung allograft recipients and most commonly isolated from the respiratory tract and blood stream. Staphylococcal species were most frequently identified, 42% of which were methicillin–resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Given the strong association of respiratory tract infections with the development of SAC and BOS, empiric antimicrobial strategies after LT should include agents directed against GP organisms, especially MRSA.
