Analysis of drug resistance tendency of Acinetobacter baumannii in Meizhou area during 2008-2012 / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the detection rate and drug resistance tendency of Acinetobacter (A .) baumannii in Meizhou area during 2008-2012 in order to provide the guidance for clinicians′medication .Methods The detection rate and drug resistant rate of A .baumanii in the clinical specimens submitted from 5 hospitals in Meizhou during 2008 -2012 were retrospectively ana-lyzed .The antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed by the disk diffusion method .The WHONET 5 .4 and SPSS18 .0 soft-wares were adopted to analyze the data .Results The detection rates of A .baumanii in these five years were 12 .91% ,15 .40% , 11 .94% ,13 .59% and 14 .00% respectively .In the sources of strains ,sputum had the highest distribution rate of 68 .99% (1 713/2 483) ,in the distribution of departments ,ICU had the highest distribution rate of 33 .91% (842/2 483) .The resistance rate of A . baumannii to cefoperazone/shubatam ,meropenem and imipenem were below 30% in the five years ,but showed the upward tenden-cy .The 5-year total drug resistance rates of A .baumanii to 18 kinds of antibacterial drugs were statistically different between ICU and non-ICU department (P<0 .05) ,the drug resistant rate of isolates from ICU was higher than that from the non-ICU depart-ments .The isolation rate of multi-drug resistant strains of A .baumanii was fluctuated in about 50% during these five years except the lower isolation rate in 2008 ,the isolation rate of pan-drug resistant A .baumanii and carbapenem resistance A .baumanii showed the upward tendency .Conclusion The drug resistance rate of A .baumanii is gradually increased .The drug resistance monitoring of A .baumanii in ICU should be strengthened .Antimicrobial agents should be reasonably used for maximizing to retard the emergence of drug resistant strains .
