[Sensitivity of 1041 strains of bacteria obtained from an intensive care unit with regard to aminoglycosides].

Antibiotic treatment of infections due to opportunistic organisms often involves an aminoglycoside/bêta lactamine combination. In order to help in the selection of the aminoglycoside used, a statistical study was made of 1041 strains of organisms obtained from an intensive care unit to 4 aminoglycosides: gentamicin, amikacin, tobramycin and dibekacin. These included Gram negative bacilli (enterobacteria, pseudomonas, acinetobacter) and staphylococci.
