Profile of co-infections & secondary infections in COVID-19 patients at a dedicated COVID-19 facility of a tertiary care Indian hospital: Implication on antimicrobial resistance

Surbhi Khurana et al.

Summary: The study found a high prevalence of secondary infections in COVID-19 patients, with K.pneumoniae and A.baumannii being the predominant pathogens, and the majority showing high resistance rates. There is a need for strengthening antimicrobial stewardship programs to ensure optimal selection of empiric treatment and rapid de-escalation based on culture reports.

Post coronavirus disease mucormycosis: a deadly addition to the pandemic spectrum

S. Sharma et al.

Summary: A study found an association between coronavirus disease and fungal infection of the paranasal sinuses, with ethmoids being the most commonly affected sinuses. Intra-orbital extension occurred in 43.47% of cases, while intracranial extension was seen in only 8.69% of cases. Twenty-one out of 23 patients had diabetes mellitus, with 12 cases being uncontrolled, and all patients had a history of steroid use during their coronavirus treatment.

Sino-orbital mucormycosis in a COVID-19 patient: A case report

Aastha Maini et al.

Summary: This case report details a post COVID-19 Sino-orbital Mucormycosis infection caused by Rhizopus oryzae and its management. Mucormycosis typically develops secondary to immunosuppression or debilitating diseases, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and intervention for a good prognosis. Research is needed on COVID-19 patients for better prevention and management of opportunistic infections to reduce incidence and morbidity.
