RESUMEN
El desarrollo de resistencia bacteriana a antimicrobianos es un problema mundial que amenaza la salud pública. En países como Estados Unidos de Norteamérica el 64% de las infecciones nosocomiales bacterianas son provocados por grampositivos y la resistencia a meticilina y vancomicina es elevada. Aunado a su gran capacidad de diseminación, estos patógenos tienen resistencia intrínseca a la gran mayoría de los antibióticos de uso clínico. Un problema actual es el desarrollo de resistencia de
S. aureus a los glicopéptidos complicando notablemente la selección de la terapéutica adecuada contra estas bacterias emergentes. En estas circunstancias se debe escoger el antibiótico con mejor perfil de actividad, mejor farmacocinética y farmacodinamia constante y el más seguro. En el primer plano de este tipo de medicamentos están las oxazolidinonas.
