6 Microbiology Most diabetic foot infections are polymicrobial, with up to five to seven different specific organisms Superficial diabetic foot infections are likely due to aerobic gram-positive cocci (including S. aureus, S. agalactiae, S. pyogenes, and coagulase-negative staphylococci). Ulcers that are deep, chronically infected, and/or previously treated with antibiotics are more likely to be polymicrobial, above organisms in addition to enterococci, Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and anaerobes. Wounds with extensive local inflammation, necrosis, gangrene should be presumed to have anaerobic organisms in addition to the above pathogens, include anaerobic streptococci, Bacteroides species, and Clostridium species E. coli (ESBL) amoxicilline augmentin S cefazolin cefuroxim cefotaxime ceftazidime Piperacilline/tazobactam S/ imipenem S meropenem S trimetroprim/sul S/ ciprofloxacin S/ gentamincine S/ ESBLs in The Netherlands Community aquired ESBLs in The Netherlands is 3%-8,6% Prevalance of ESBLs in The Netherlands is 5,5% Paltansing, EID 2013; euland, ECCMID 2013; Carbapenemase positive Occurrence of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in 38 European countries K. pneumoniae amoxicilline augmentin Piperacilline/tazobactam cefazolin cefuroxim cefotaxime ceftazidime cefepime imipenem meropenem trimetroprim/sul ciprofloxacin gentamincine colistin tigecycline S/ S/ S/ S/ S/
