  • Title: [Treatment of hospital-acquired urinary infections with amikacin (author's transl)].
    Author: Weidner W, Nöske HD, Sziegoleit A, Schröder R, Leidenfrost U.
    Journal: Med Klin; 1979 Jul 06; 74(27):1071-6. PubMed ID: 470792.
    Abstract:
    The efficacy of amikacin was evaluated in 32 patients with urinary infections due to hospital-acquired rods. Treatment with amikacin was successful in all cases of acute urinary infection by gentamicin-resistent gram-negative strains. Amikacin shares with other aminoglycosides the risk of nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity. Follow-up studies are preferable to patients already suffering from damage of hearing. Lesions of n. vestibularis were relatively infrequent.
