Analysis of infection composition and drug resistance to Gram-negative bacilli in children's respiratory tract in Suzhou from 2007 to 2016 / 中华实用儿科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the infection composition and drug resistance to Gram-negative (G-) bacilli in children's respiratory tract in Suzhou,in order to provide evidence for rational use of antibiotics clinically.Methods G-bacilli culture samples were collected from 21 561 cases of nasopharyngeal secretions from patients with respiratory tract infection admitted at the Department of Respiratory,Children's Hospital of Soochow University from January 2007 to December 2016,including 21 246 cases in general wards,and 315 patients who were transferred to the respiratory department after treatment in the Intensive Care Unit(ICU),and the children were divided into the general ward group and the ICU group,and the pathogens were compared and the changes in bacterial susceptibility were dynamically observed between the 2 groups.Results The primary G-bacteria for respiratory infection was Haemophilus influenzae,followed by Escherichia coli,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii.The detection rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in the ICU group were 16.8％ (21/125 strains) and 14.4％ (18/125 strains),respectively,which were significantly higher than those in the general ward group [10.0％ (208/2 071 strains),9.2％ (190/2 071 strains)].The detection rates of G-bacteria in the ICU group were 33.7％ (106/315 cases),which were significantly higher than those in the general ward group [9.4％ (1 997/21 246 cases)],and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =210.325,P ＜ 0.001).The rare G-bacillus such as Stenotrophomonas maltophilia,Acinetobacter junii and Burkholderia onion were higher in the ICU group [17.6％ (22/125 strains)] than that in the general ward group [6.4％ (132/2 071 strains)].The rate that of G bacteria with two or more mixed infection in ICU group [17.0％ (18/106 cases)] was significantly higher than in the general ward group [3.4％ (68/1 997 cases)],and the difference was statistically sigmficant(x2 =47.3,P ＜0.05).For the mixed infection,the ICU group was mainly composed of Klebsiella pneumoniae mixed with Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Escherichia coli,while the general ward group was composed of Haemophilus influenzae mixed with Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Escherichia coli.The sensitivity of Haemophilus infiuenzae to Ampicillin,Sultamicillin,Cefuroxime,Cefaclor and Azithromycin decreased,and the sensitivity to Chloramphenicol,Tetracycline and Trimethoprim + Sulfamethoxazole increased year by year,and there were statistically significant differences in different years (all P ＜ 0.05).The sensitivity to Escherichia coli to Ceftazidime decreased year by year,and the sensitivity to Ampicillin and Levofloxacin increased year by year,and there were statistically significant differences in different years (all P ＜ 0.05).The sensitivity to Klebsiella pneumoniae to Cefoperazone/Sulbactam and imipenem decreased,and the sensitivity to Ciprofloxacin and Levofloxacin increased,and there were statistically significant differences in different years (all P ＜ 0.05).The sensitivity to Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Cefoperazone/Sulbactam and Ceftriaxone decreased year by year,and the sensitivity to Levofloxacin increased,and there were statistically significant differences in different years (all P ＜ 0.05).The detection rate of carbapenem-resistant strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed an increasing trend,and there were statistically significant differences in different years (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The primary G-bacteria for respiratory infections is Haemophilus influenzae,G-bacilli especially,the mixed infection of G-bacilli,is more likely to cause severe and critical respiratory infections.The resistance rate of G-bacteria infection in children's respiratory tract to commonly used antibiotics is generally on the rise.
