  • Title: [Purulent meningitis in childhood caused by Haemophilus influenzae with ampicillin and chloramphenicol resistance].
    Author: Rockstroh T, Noack R, Scholz H.
    Journal: Kinderarztl Prax; 1989 Jun; 57(6):271-5. PubMed ID: 2770124.
    Abstract:
    A report is given on two children suffering from meningitis caused by ampicillin- and chloramphenicol-resistent Haemophilus influenzae. Since effective therapy has been started with delay, recovery was affected with complications. The need for the early determination of minimal inhibitory concentrations and detection of beta-lactamase-production is emphasized as well as for repeated measurement of C-reactive protein in serum. Cefotaxime is recommended in case of presence of resistent Haemophilusstrains.
