Since times immemorial, they are important zoonotic pathogens of poikilotherms but are now emerging as important human pathogens. These emerging enteric pathogens flourish in the water distribution system by forming biofilms. They possess large number of virulence factors including inherent resistance to various antibiotics and ability to form biofilms using quorum sensing. These properties make them easy pathogens for human infections. Aeromonads are important enteric pathogens, but, with the growing level of immunosuppression in the population, they have been associated with various extraintestinal infections, such as skin and soft\u2011tissue infections, traumatic wound infections, and lower respiratory tract\/ urinary tract infections. The average annual incidence of bacteremia in Southern Taiwan due to Aeromonas spp. was 76 cases\/ million inhabitants between 2008 and 2010. However, the incidence reported from Western countries is much lower. The case fatality rate among patients with Aeromonas bacteremia ranges from 27.5 to 46%. Aeromonads are universally resistant to the narrow-spectrum penicillin group of antibiotics such as penicillin, ampicillin, carbenicillin, and ticarcillin. They are however susceptible to piperacillin, azlocillin, second and third generation cephalosporins, and carbapenems. Most of the Aeromonas species are susceptible to aminoglycosides, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, trimethoprim\u2011sulfamethoxazole, quinolones, and monobactams. This manuscript is a comprehensive systematic review of the literature available on Aeromonas spp.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4103\/0974-2727.176234","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,2,12]],"date-time":"2016-02-12T08:51:43Z","timestamp":1455267103000},"page":"001-004","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":71,"title":["Aeromonas spp.: An Emerging Nosocomial Pathogen"],"prefix":"10.25259","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Priyam","family":"Batra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Microbiology, Department of Laboratory Medicine, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Purva","family":"Mathur","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Microbiology, Department of Laboratory Medicine, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mahesh C","family":"Misra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, JPNA Trauma Centre, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"10894","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"key-10.4103\/0974-2727.176234-1","unstructured":"Abott SL.
