Distribution and drug resistance analysis of bile-isolated pathogens In Xiamen area / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the distribution and drug resistance of bile-isolated pathogens in Xiamen area ,providing evi-dence for clinical use of antibiotics .Methods Bile cultures and antibiotic susceptibility tests were performed on strains isolated from the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University .WHONET 5 .6 was used for data analysis .Results In 35 out of 217 samples ,2 kinds of pathogens were isolated .Among these ,Enterococcus and Enterobacteriaceae coinfection was most common .There were 252 strains isolated totally ,with 83 gram-positive strains(32 .9% ) ,165 gram-negative strains (65 .5% ) and 4 fungi strains (1 .6% ) . Escherichia coli ,Enterococcus faecalis and Klebsiella pneumoniae were three of the most common pathogens isolated .Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii were two of the most common nonfermenters isolated .The resistance rates of Enterobacte-riaceae to aminoglycosides ,fourth generation cephalosporins ,carbapenems or piperacillin/tazobactam were lower than 40 .0% .The resistance rate of Escherichia coli to quinolones was higher than 50 .0% .Enterococcus faecalis or enterococcus faecium were less re-sistant to vancomycin ,linezolid and tigecycline .The resistance rates of enterococcus to high concentration of streptomycin or genta-micin were lower than 30 .0% .Conclusion The top three common pathogens isolated from bile are Escherichia coli ,Enterococcus faecalis and Klebsiella pneumonia in Xiamen area .Infections by Enterococcus together with Enterobacteriaceae account for large numbers of coinfection cases .The resistance rates to cephalosporin or quinolones of pathogens causing biliary tract infections have increased dramatically .
