A needle was inserted into the site of the previous knee surgery, and 300 ml of serous fluid was removed that cultured positive (see Gram stain and BA plate (colony at end of arrow) below). The bacterium also was methicillin resistant. The treatment therapy was changed to include vancomycin, rifampin, and intravenous immunoglobulin.

In both cases presented here the Gram stain was positive for bacteria. In one study from Bowman Gray School of Medicine, the Gram stain was positive in 80 to 100% of the cases of N. meningitidis, S. pneumoniae and H. influenzae, but only positive 25% of the time for group B streptococcal and other bacterial meningitides.

Although vancomycin is active against a variety of other gram-positive organisms, other antibiotics are preferred to treat infections due to these organisms (Table 1). In critical care medicine, vancomycin has been mainly used to treat infections where MRSA is the presumed cause of infection.

This high percent of Gram positive baceraemia presented by these workers is referred to the factors that possibly contribute to the shift in Gram-positive isolates as increased use of indwelling central venous catheters, fluoroquinolone prophylaxis, and high-dose chemotherapy inducing oral mucositis (Paganini et al., 2003 and Walsh et al., 2006).

Gram positive bacteria adhere to cardiac valvular surfaces more avidly than Gram negatives. This is due to the presence of surface components (adhesins) such as the extracellular polysaccharide, dextran, for streptococci that mediates bacterial binding to and colonization of valvular surfaces. Other factors include the serum resistance of Gram ...
