RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To explore the role of clinical pharmacists in the treatment of pan-drug resistant Acinetobacter bau-mannii infection. METHODS:Clinical pharmacists participated in the treatment for a severe pneumonia case of pan-drug resistant A. baumannii infection. Clinical pharmacists supplied overall pharmaceutical care and suggestions with respects to initial medication scheme evaluation,pathogen judgment,therapy drug selection,ADR disposal,etc.,including anti-infective treatment of moxifloxa-cin 0.4 g,ivgtt,qd+meropenem 0.5 g,ivgtt,q8 h+linezolid 0.6 g,ivgtt,q12 h;anti-pan-drug resistant A. baumannii infection of cefoperazone sodium and sulbactam sodium 3.0 g,ivgtt,q8 h+tigecycline 50 mg,ivgtt,q12 h;liver protection of ademetionine 1, 4-Butanedisulfonate 1.0 g,ivgtt,qd+reduced glutathione 1.8 g,ivgtt,qd. RESULTS:After 25 d treatment,the patient hadn’t been fe-vered,and hemogram and hepatic function index decreased to normal value. CONCLUSIONS:Clinical pharmacist should be en-gage in anti-infective treatment and pharmaceutical care,and provide physicians reasonable medication suggestion so as to promote care rate in the clinic.
RESUMO
Objective To describe the monitoring and control of pan-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (XDRABA) colonization and infection in a medical intensive care unit (ICU),and to summarize the effective measures of surveillance of nosocomial infection and control.Methods Nonsurgical patients admitted to medical ICU of Peking University People's Hospital from September 2009 to April 2013 with length of ICU stay over 48 hours were surveyed.Number of cases of colonization and infection of XDRABA per month was recorded,and the clinical features of patients with XDRABA colonization and infection were observed.The control of XDRABA colonization and infection was divided into three stages:① Outbreak stage,from September 2009 to August 2010,the infection control measures included stringent hand hygiene and surface disinfection,use of disposable ventilator tubes and improvement in antibiotics use.② Environmental control stage,from September 2010 to April 2012,the infection control measures consisted of on-the-spot investigation,isolation of patients with XDRABA colonization and infection,tubes terminal environment disinfection.③ Microbial screening stage,from May 2012 to April 2013,throat,nose and axillary swabs were obtained when the patients admitted.Results From 2009 September to 2013 April there was a total of 193 patients colonized or infected with XDRABA,and 64 patients died (mortality rate was 33.2％),and 133 (68.9％) patients were on mechanical ventilation.Patients with XDRABA colonization and infection had severer illness [acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score 20.3 ±6.7],longer ICU stay [(34.6 ± 13.8) days].In outbreak stage,number of cases with XDRABA colonization and infection was 5-9 per month.In environmental control stage,case number of XDRABA colonization and infection was 3-6 per month.In microbial screening stage,case number of XDRABA colonization and infection,which were already present,was 2-4 per month,and they were mainly admitted from emergency department (59.5％).The number of cases of ICU acquired XDRABA colonization and infection decreased from 2-3 to 0-1 per month.Conclusion To control the colonization and infection of XDRABA,monitoring of microorganism,hand hygiene,isolation of patients with XDRABA colonization and infection,and stringent environment disinfection were very necessary.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the activity of antibiotics against pan-drug-resistant (PDR) Acinetobacter baumannii by combination antimicrobial susceptibility test in viro with epsilometric methods (Etest method) and microdilution checkerboard (CB method),and to detect a good correlation between timekill curve with the above mentioned two assays.Methods Thirty-one clinical isolates of PDR Acinetobacter baumannii were selected for mono and combination antimicrobial susceptibility test in vitro by E-test and CB method,then a comparison was conducted between the test results and the time-kill curve.Mono drugs involved tigecycline,colistin,imipenem and amikacin,and combinations involved two of drugs above,and three drugs involved imipenem/tigecycline,plus amikacin combination.Results Synergistic effect was detected in imipenem plus colistin and tigecycline plus imipenem combination.A high comparability was revealed between the E-test method with antimicrobial drugs added into the culture medium and the time-kill curves.Synergy in the combination of imipenem/tigecycline,plus amikacin was detected by the CB method and time-kill curves.Conclusion The results showed that the effect of specific combination of antibiotics against PDR Acinetobacter baumannii could be predicted by testing their synergistic effect with combination antimicrobial susceptibility test.
RESUMO
Objective To approach the clinical effect of cefoperazone sulbactam associated with tigecycline for treatment of patients with severe pulmonary infection caused by pan drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in intensive care unit(ICU). Methods Retrospectively,the treatments of 88 patients with sepsis and pulmonary infection caused by pan drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii admitted in ICU from January,2011 to June,2013 were analyzed,among them antibiotics were used for 82 patients,and the rest 6 patients did not use antibiotics because of family refusal or abandonment of therapy. The patients having used antibiotics were divided into three groups:A group(27 patients)received cefoperazone sulbactam,B group(30 patients)received cefoperazone sulbactam associated with amikacin,and C group(25 patients)received cefoperazone sulbactam associated with tigecycline, antimicrobial treatment being for 7-15 days. The venous blood was collected to determine the changes in white blood cell count(WBC),C-reactive protein(CRP)and procalcitonin(PCT)before and after therapy. The rate of bacteriological efficiency,successful weaning of mechanical instrument,28-day mortality rate and clinical efficacy were observed after therapy in three groups. Results Before therapy,the comparisons of levels of WBC,CRP and PCT among three groups were of no statistically significant difference(all P>0.05),and they were decreased obviously after therapy in three groups among which they were decreased most significantly in C group〔WBC(×109/L):17.01±5.35 vs. 20.40±6.54,18.28±6.41;CRP(mg/L):64.6±8.4 vs. 68.3±12.7,70.0±13.4;PCT(μg/L):20.84±7.26 vs. 36.14±10.12,52.66±13.47,P<0.05〕. The rates of bacteriological efficiency and successful weaning in C group were increased more significantly than those in either A or B groups after therapy(bacteriological efficiency:76.00%vs. 44.44%,46.67%,χ2=9.750,P=0.006;rate of successful weaning:72.00%vs. 40.74%, 43.33%,χ2=12.083,P=0.009),and 28-day mortality rate in C group was much lower than those in A and B groups (24.00% vs. 48.15%,36.67%,χ2=11.510,P=0.030). The total clinical efficiency in C group was much higher than those in A and B groups(76.00%vs. 44.44%,46.67%,both P<0.05). Conclusion Cefoperazone sulbactam associated with tigecycline has significant clinical therapeutic effect in patients with pulmonary infection caused by pan drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in ICU,as it can decrease inflammatory reaction,increase the rates of successful weaning and survival.
RESUMO
Acinetobacter species are non-fermentative Gram-negative coccobacilli and they have emerged as important nosocomial pathogens which are associated with the significant multidrug resistance in recent years. Carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii (CRAB) and pandrug-resistant A. baumannii (PDRAB) were reported in 1991 and 1998, respectively. Fiftyeight isolates of Acinetobacter species recovered from a university hospital between August 2004 and March 2005 were investigated for the existence of CRAB, PDRAB, extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Acinetobacter and examined for their phenotypic and genotypic characteristics. Genomospecies of Acinetobacter species were determined by amplified rDNA restriction analysis (ARDRA) and antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed with 13 kinds of antimicrobial agents. Metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) producers were screened by modified hodge test and confirmed by imipenem-EDTA disk synergy test. Detection of blaIMP-1, blaVIM-2, blaTEM, and blaPER-1 was performed by PCR. Genomic DNAs were analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Among 58 isolates of Acinteobacter species, 40 isolates were identified as genospecies 2 (A. baumannii), 9 were 13TU, 5 were A. phenon 6/ct, and 4 were Acinetobacter genospecies 3 by ARDRA. Thirteen isolates were confirmed as MBL-producers and blaIMP-1 and blaVIM-2 were carried by 5 and 8 isolates of them, respectively. MBL-producers were mostly 13TU, A. phenon 6/ct 13TU, and Acinetobacter genospecies 3 and they were susceptible to ciprofloxacin and ampicillin-sulbactam. BlaPER-1 was carried by thirteen isolates and 12 isolates of them were PDRAB showing resistance to all antimicrobial agents tested, including ceftazidime, cefepime, aztreonam, ciprofloxacin, amikacin, gentamicin, ampicillin-sulbactam, and imipenem. In conclusion, most MBL-producers belonged to 13TU, A. phenon 6/ct 13TU, and Acinetobacter genospecies 3 which were susceptible to ciprofloxacin and ampicillin-sulbactam, whereas 12 of 13 PER-1-producers were PDRAB originated from the same clone.
