Long-term use of selective decontamination of the digestive tract does not increase antibiotic resistance: a 5-year prospective cohort study.
Ochoa-Ardila ME, García-Cañas A, Gómez-Mediavilla K, González-Torralba A, Alía I, García-Hierro P, Taylor N, van Saene HK, de la Cal MA. Ochoa-Ardila ME, et al. Among authors: van saene hk. Intensive Care Med. 2011 Sep;37(9):1458-65. doi: 10.1007/s00134-011-2307-0. Epub 2011 Jul 19. Intensive Care Med. 2011. PMID: 21769683
PURPOSE: Despite the evidence, the use of selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) remains controversial, largely because of concerns that it may promote the emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term in …

Surgical strategies in the management of ecthyma gangrenosum in paediatric oncology patients.
Khalil BA, Baillie CT, Kenny SE, Lamont GL, Turnock RR, Pizer BL, van Saene HF, Losty PD. Khalil BA, et al. Among authors: van saene hf. Pediatr Surg Int. 2008 Jul;24(7):793-7. doi: 10.1007/s00383-008-2159-z. Epub 2008 Apr 22. Pediatr Surg Int. 2008. PMID: 18427811
Between 1994 and 2005, all children with EG were identified. Case notes were reviewed. Hospital course and long-term outcome were documented. Ten patients were identified. Eight had acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, one child had acute myeloid leukaemia and another had rhabdo …

Most nosocomial pneumonias are not due to nosocomial bacteria in ventilated patients. Evaluation of the accuracy of the 48 h time cut-off using carriage as the gold standard.
Silvestri L, Sarginson RE, Hughes J, Milanese M, Gregori D, Van Saene HK. Silvestri L, et al. Among authors: van saene hk. Anaesth Intensive Care. 2002 Jun;30(3):275-82. doi: 10.1177/0310057X0203000303. Anaesth Intensive Care. 2002. PMID: 12075633
A prospective observational cohort study was undertaken with two endpoints: (1) to compare the time cut-off of 48h and the carrier state criterion for classifying lower airway infections in adult and paediatric long-term ventilated patients, and (2) to evaluate the potenti …

Bactericidal activity against coagulase-negative staphylococci is impaired in infants receiving long-term parenteral nutrition.
Okada Y, Klein NJ, van Saene HK, Webb G, Holzel H, Pierro A. Okada Y, et al. Among authors: van saene hk. Ann Surg. 2000 Feb;231(2):276-81. doi: 10.1097/00000658-200002000-00018. Ann Surg. 2000. PMID: 10674621 Free PMC article.
RESULTS: In study 1, infants receiving a normal enteral diet showed a high capacity to ingest and kill coagulase-negative staphylococci. In contrast, the blood of infants receiving long-term TPN showed a reduction in coagulase-negative staphylococci phagocytosis and killin …

Spread of beta-lactam-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a cystic fibrosis clinic.
Cheng K, Smyth RL, Govan JR, Doherty C, Winstanley C, Denning N, Heaf DP, van Saene H, Hart CA. Cheng K, et al. Among authors: van saene h. Lancet. 1996 Sep 7;348(9028):639-42. doi: 10.1016/S0140-6736(96)05169-0. Lancet. 1996. PMID: 8782753
INTERPRETATION: This study provides the first molecular evidence of a long-term outbreak of P aeruginosa in a CF centre. We suggest that careful surveillance of the prevalence of antibiotic resistance in CF centres should be instituted with measures to prevent cross-infect …
