RESUMEN
Objective To determine the drug-resistance rates of bacteria isolated from 7 hospitals located at different areas of China.Methods 1 111 pathogenic strains were isolated for susceptibility test using agar dilution method from Sep 1,204 to Aug 3 1,2005.According to the criteria of guideline of CLSI (2007),MIC50 and MIC90 were detected for antibacterial activity of antimicrobial agents and resistant rate (R%),intermediate rate(I%)and sensitive rate(S%)were calculated based on susceptibility tests.Results The detectable rates of methiciltin-resistant Staphylococcus anreus(MRSA)and methicilllin- resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis(MRSE)were 39.3%and 74.0% respectively.The total resistant rate of penicillin resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae(R%+I%) was 33.3%(R%=5.6%,I%=27.7%). 91 strains of Enterococcus were isolated.The resistant rate of penicillin resistant E.faecalis Was 40.8%.and E.faecium Was 100%.Neither strains of S.aureus nor strains of S.epidemidis were found resistant to vancomycin.No strains of Enterococcus were found resistant to vancomycin.644 strains of gram-negative bacilli were isolated.The most common gram-negative bacilli were E.coli,k pneumoniae,Acinetobacter spp,P.aeruginosa,and E.cloacae,respectively.The ESBLs-producing strains accounted for 38.6% and 26.7% in E.coli and K. pneumoniae.respectively.Meropenem and imipenem were the most potent antimicrobial agents.Cefoperazone/sulbactam demonstrated excellent activity agent of gram-negative bacilli.Most of the gram-negative bacillus still susceptible to ceftazidime.The new fluroquinotones, moxifloxacin and levofloxacin showed strong and broad spectrum activity against the most gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.Conclusions This surveillance in 2004-2005 together with the surveillance in 2002-2003,were similar in the bacterial resistance pattern and the trend of rising resistant rates for some pathogens.
