RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Being able to hydrolyze the majority of b-lactam antibiotics that are currently in use, extended-spectrum b-lactamases (ESBLs) pose a serious clinical problem. In order to solve this problem, it is recommended to use beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitor instead of extended-spectrum cephalosporins. This study investigated the relationship between piperacillin/tazobactam use and ESBL-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli in stool colony. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A prospective study was performed in hemato-oncology department patients of Hanyang University Hospital. During the pre-intervention period of 3 months (Feb. 2005 to Apr. 2005), antibiotics were prescribed liberally. During the intervention period of 6 months (May. 2005 to Oct. 2005), use of the 3rd (4th) generation cephalosporins and carbapenems were restricted and piperacillin/tazobactam was recommended. All enrolled patients performed stool culture or rectal swab culture. ESBL confirmed by Double disk synergy test and commercial identification kit. Between the pre-intervention and intervention groups, acquisition rates of ESBL producing organisms were compared. RESULTS: 50 cases were enrolled in pre-intervention period and 112 cases were enrolled in intervention period. In intervention period, use of 3rd (4th) generation cephalosporins and carbapenems decreased from 27 daily define dose/1,000patient/days to 6.82 DDD/1,000patient/days, but use of piperacillin/tazobactam increased from 1.98 DDD/1,000patient/days to 5.66 DDD/1,000patient/days. The intestinal acquisition rate of ESBL producing organism decreased from 30% to 12%. There was no difference in overall mortality of infectious disease between two phase. CONCLUSION: Use of piperacillin/tazobactam instead of extended-spectrum cephalosporins reduces intestinal acquisition rate of ESBL producing K. pneumoniae and E. coli. Therefore, in order to decrease the number of ESBL producing organism, we recommend using piperacillin/tazobactam instead of using extended-spectrum cephalosporins.

RESUMO

Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis strains isolated at eight large medical centers in Korea were examined for methicillin resistance and resistance to eight other antibiotics; cefazolin, cefamandole, cefuroxime, cefoxitin, cefotaxime, moxalactam, penicillin G and vancomycin. Methicillin resistance was found in 296 of 1225 strains (24.2%) of S. aureus and 126 of 348 strains (36.2%) of S. epidermidis. Methicillinresistant strains were isolated from all sources with the frequency of isolation ranging from 11% to 60%. From pleural effusion, throat swab and blood, methicillin-resistant strains of S. aureus were more frequently isolated with statistical significance (Chi-squared test, 95% confidence). Almost all of Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and S. epidermidis (MRSE) strains were multiply resistant to one or more tested eight antibiotics. However only 7(2.4%) of 296 MRSA strains and 2(1.6%) of 126 MRSE strains were resistant to vancomycin. Vancomycin was the most effective antibiotic against staphylococcal isolates as well as MRSA and MRSE.
