Exchange of anti -anti -dog -bacteria between dogs, cats and humans "possible"

Dogs and cats can transmit bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics to their owners, and people can transfer these dangerous microbes to their pets, according to a new research presented during the European Microbiology Conference. The study is based on observation and cannot be proven that close contact with pets causes the transmission of infection, but this indicates the possibility of infection. The researchers conducted the study on more than 2800 patients in the hospital, and the animals that accompany them, and the results showed that the participation of bacteria that are resistant to multiple medicines between animals and their owners is possible. The role of pets as potential tanks of multiple medication is a growing concern around the world, because antimicrobial resistance occurs when infection microbes (such as bacteria, viruses or fungi develop) to become resistant to the property designed to kill it. 5 million deaths, and estimates indicate that the infection resistant to antibiotics has caused about 1.3 million deaths, and that it is associated with about 5 million deaths around the world in 2019. The researchers in this study wanted to know if pets such as cats and dogs play a role in patients in hospitals in antibiotic -resistant bacteria. The researchers focused on the most common bacteria at hospital patients, which is the Staphylococcus resistance of an ordinary antibiotic called “methylene”, intestinal cotton resistant to “Vanquicin”, the third generation of intestinal bacteria that are resistant to “cephalosporine”, and intestinal bacteria that are resistant to “Carbanem”. The researchers met between June 2019 and September 2022, the nose and rectum depper of 2891 patients who went to the Shareite University Hospital in German capital Berlin/ and of any dogs and cats living in the hospital, and the genetic sequence was used to determine each of the types of bacteria in each sample and the presence of drug -resistant genes. The researchers asked the participants about the risk factors familiar to infection with antibiotic resistant bacteria, which included the use of antibiotics, the last hospital stays and the presence of urinary or central intravenous catalogs, and they also asked them about the number of pets at home. The researchers have discovered the incidence of infection with antibiotic resistant bacteria at about 30% of patients living in hospitals. Dog ownership among patients was about 11% and cat ownership is 9%. The researchers have already asked 626 pets owners to send flavors of throat and feces to their pets, so that 300 pet owners sent samples of 400 pets. The sampling analysis led to the absorption of about 15% of dogs and 5% of cats are positive results for antibiotic -resistant bacteria, of the same type of bacteria infected with their owners. Although the level of participation between patients and their pets in the study was low, the carriers – whether human or animals – can cause bacteria in their environment, and it can be a source of infection for the most vulnerable people in the hospital, such as those suffering from the weakening of the immune system, young or older.
