Staphylococcus haemolyticus Schleifer & Kloos 1975 |
Staphylococcus haemolyticus is a species of bacterium belonging to the genus Staphylococcus. It is a Gram positive coccus, coagulase negative, and catalase positive. Frequently found as a commensal organism on the skin of humans and animals, S. haemolyticus occurs infrequently as a cause of soft-tissue infections, usually in immunocompromised patients.[1]
S. haemolyticus is resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents.[2] Resistance to vancomycin has been recorded, and this is a cause for concern because such resistance could be acquired by other, more pathogenic staphylococci.Invalid parameter in <ref>

Treatment
Antimicrobial regimen
- Staphylococcus epidermidis[3]
- 1. Methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus epidermidis
- Preferred regimen (1): Oxacillin 1-2 g IV q4h
- Preferred regimen (2): Nafcillin 1-2 g IV q4h
- Preferred regimen (3): Cephalothin
- Alternative regimen: Rifampin 600 mg/day PO qd PLUS Sulfamethoxazole and Trimethoprim OR Fluoroquinolones AND Daptomycin 600 mg PO/IV q12h[4]
- Note: 75% of the S. epidermidis are methicillin-resistant.
- 2. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis
- Preferred regimen: Vancomycin 1 g IV q12h ± Rifampin 600 mg/day PO qd
- Note: For deep-seated infections consider adding Gentamicin AND/OR Rifampin 600 mg/day PO qd to the regimen[5]
- 3. Prosthetic device infections
- Preferred regimen: Oxacillin 1-2 g IV q4h OR Vancomycin 1 g IV q12h PLUS Rifampin 600 mg/day PO qd AND Gentamicin 3 mg/kg/day IV/IM q8-24h is appropriate[5]
- Note: Duration depends on site of infection and severity.
