RESUMO
OBJECTIVE To get knowledge of the drugs resistance change of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in intensive care unit ICU, so as to offer the first-hand information to the clinical preventive and therapeutic countermeasures. METHODS Antimicrobial susceptibility tests of Staphylococcus aureus(SAU) were performed from 2001 to 2006. RESULTS The most frequent isolates were P. aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumonia and Acinetobacter baumannii in 2001-2004. S. aureus were more than A. baumannii in 2006 and became the majore isolated bacteria in the sputum of the ICU patients. The incidence of drug resistance increased yearly(0, 25.0%, 29.4%, 74.4%, 87.7%, 92.7%, respectively) in S. aureus, and it was susceptibte to vancomycin. CONCLUSIONS It was showed that P. aeruginosa, K. pneumonia, A. baumannii and S. aureus were the major pathogens in the ICU, showing high drug resistance. Doctors should pay more attention to analyze the bacterial resistance profile in order to decrease the incidence of drug resistance and use the antibiotics properly.
