ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical distribution and drug resistance of multidrug-resistant (MDR)Pseudomonas aeruginosa to provide reference for clinical rational use of antibacterial drugs.Methods The strains were originated from bacterial culture in the samples of sputum,urine and wound secretion collected from the inpatients admitted in our hospital from January 2009 to December 2013.Results 200 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated during this period,in which 51 strains were MDR,accounting for 25.5%.The isolated MDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were mainly distributed in the the respiratory de-partment(80.4%)and the surgical department(17.9%).MDR strains isolated from the sputum specimens accounted for 64.7%, followed by the wound secretion(19.6%)and urine(11.8%).Pseudomonas aeruginosa was seriously resistant to ampicillin-sulbac-tam with the resistance rate of was 100.0%,but had the low resistance rate to amikacin,imipenem,meropenem,piperacillin/tazobactam,ciprofloxacin,levofloxacin,polymyxin E,which were 28.9%,29.4%,25.0%,30.4%,34.5%,34.5% and 8.3%;the resistance rate to commonly used antibacterial drugs was 39.0%-58.3%.14 strains were pan-drug resistant Pseudomonas aerugi-nosa(PDR-PA);The detection rate was 7.0%.Conclusion The drug resistance of MDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa is more serious, the clinical application of anibiotics should be perfromed based on the result of drug susceptibility test.
