Drug Resistance and Gene Distribution of Klebsiella pneumoniae Producing the Ultra-broad Spectrum Beta-lactam Enzyme / 中华医院感染学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To investigate the epidemic,drug resistance and gene distribution of ESBLs-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPN) from Jiangxi TCM Hospital. METHODS The susceptibility of KPN was detected by MIC PCR was used to detect ESBLs gene. RESULTS There were 42 strains with ESBLs isolated,the positive rate was 35.0%. The drug resistance rate of KPN with ESBLs was higher than that without ESBLs,PCR typing result:TEM 33 (78.6%),SHV 8 (19.0%) and CTXM 29 (69.0%). CONCLUSIONS The ESBLs-producing bacteria have multiple drug resistant genes;TEM and CTXM are the main drug resistant genes in our hospital.
