serovar Newport is a human pathogen underreported in most developing countries. It is known for causing gastroenteritis and extraintestinal infections. In this case report, we report the case of ceftriaxone-resistant serovar Newport from South India, causing acute gastroenteritis in a sixty-year-old female patient having a history of antimicrobial therapy and recent hospital admission. Serovar Newport, especially among antibiotic-exposed patients, poses a significant public health threat due to its ability to acquire multidrug resistance. This emphasizes the necessity for robust surveillance and monitoring of nontyphoidal infections, particularly given the limited data on serovar Newport in India. Vigilance in clinical practice and public health initiatives is crucial to effectively address the emergence and spread of multidrug-resistant strains.
纽波特血清型是大多数发展中国家报道较少的人类病原体。它以引起肠胃炎和肠道外感染而闻名。在本病例报告中,我们报告了一例来自印度南部的头孢曲松耐药的纽波特血清型,它导致一名有抗生素治疗史和近期住院史的 60 岁女性患者发生急性肠胃炎。纽波特血清型,特别是在接受抗生素治疗的患者中,由于其获得多药耐药性的能力,对公共健康构成重大威胁。这强调了需要对非伤寒性感染进行强有力的监测和监测,特别是鉴于印度有关纽波特血清型的数据有限。临床实践和公共卫生措施中的警惕性对于有效应对多药耐药菌株的出现和传播至关重要。
