Transit of micro-bubbles through the pulmonary circulation of Thoroughbred horses during exercise
La Gerche A, Daffy J, Mooney D, Forbes G, Davie A
Res Vet Sci . 2013 May; 95(2):644-7. PMID: 23642486
It has been observed that microbubbles may pass through the pulmonary circulation of dogs and humans during exercise. In humans, this phenomenon has been associated with lower pulmonary artery pressures,...

Outcome of debridement and retention in prosthetic joint infections by methicillin-resistant staphylococci, with special reference to rifampin and fusidic acid combination therapy
Peel T, Buising K, Dowsey M, Aboltins C, Daffy J, Stanley P, et al.
Antimicrob Agents Chemother . 2012 Nov; 57(1):350-5. PMID: 23114758
The management of prosthetic joint infections remains a clinical challenge, particularly infections due to methicillin-resistant staphylococci. Previously, this infection was considered a contraindication to debridement and retention strategies. This retrospective...

Risk factors for prosthetic hip and knee infections according to arthroplasty site
Peel T, Dowsey M, Daffy J, Stanley P, Choong P, Buising K
J Hosp Infect . 2011 Aug; 79(2):129-33. PMID: 21821313
Prosthetic joint infection is a devastating complication of arthroplasty. Previous epidemiological studies have assessed factors associated with arthroplasty infections but have not assessed the impact of comorbidity on infection at...

Gram-negative prosthetic joint infection treated with debridement, prosthesis retention and antibiotic regimens including a fluoroquinolone
Aboltins C, Dowsey M, Buising K, Peel T, Daffy J, Choong P, et al.
Clin Microbiol Infect . 2010 Sep; 17(6):862-7. PMID: 20825437
Information is required about treatment outcomes of Gram-negative prosthetic joint infections treated with prosthesis retention and surgical debridement, especially where biofilm-active antibiotics such as fluoroquinolones are used. The outcome of...

Use of pristinamycin for infections by gram-positive bacteria: clinical experience at an Australian hospital
Reid A, Daffy J, Stanley P, Buising K
Antimicrob Agents Chemother . 2010 Jun; 54(9):3949-52. PMID: 20547786
Thirty-six patients were treated with pristinamycin for 46 different microbiological isolates between April 2007 and July 2009. Pathogens included 9 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates, 13 methicillin-resistant coagulase negative staphylococci, and...

Caspofungin as salvage monotherapy for invasive aspergillosis in patients with haematological malignancies or following allogeneic stem cell transplantation: efficacy and concomitant cyclosporin A
Morrissey C, Slavin M, OReilly M, Daffy J, Seymour J, Schwarer A, et al.
Mycoses . 2007 Mar; 50 Suppl 1:24-37. PMID: 17394607
Caspofungin (CAS) has shown efficacy as salvage monotherapy for invasive aspergillosis (IA) in two open label non-comparative trials. The association between hepatotoxicity and concomitant use of CAS and cyclosporin A...

Treatment of staphylococcal prosthetic joint infections with debridement, prosthesis retention and oral rifampicin and fusidic acid
Aboltins C, Page M, Buising K, Jenney A, Daffy J, Choong P, et al.
Clin Microbiol Infect . 2007 Mar; 13(6):586-91. PMID: 17331125
There is growing evidence of the efficacy of treating early staphylococcal infections of prosthetic joints with surgical debridement and prosthesis retention, combined with oral antibiotic regimens that include rifampicin in...
