TL;DR: Antibiotic therapy, especially linezolid with or without rifampicin and fusidic acid, in conjunction with surgical debulking is effective therapy for the majority of patients with serious infections (including endocarditis) caused by SA-RVS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endotoxemia: methods of detection and clinical correlates.
TL;DR: The Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) as mentioned in this paper has been used for the detection of endotoxin in other fluids other than blood, such as gram-negative sepsis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotic-Induced Release of Endotoxin: A Reappraisal
TL;DR: The evidence that the release of endotoxin has clinical importance is conflicting, and the issue is unresolved, however, nonlytic release may have implications for the therapeutic efficacy of antiendotoxin immunotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prophylaxis with enteral antibiotics in ventilated patients: selective decontamination or selective cross-infection?
TL;DR: The possibility that SDD represents a major cross-infection hazard is suggested because of the differences between observed and expected event rates for each study and the results are contrary to the initial assumption.
Journal ArticleDOI
