Etiological characteristics and drug resistance of patients with severe pulmonary infection caused by brain trauma in Suining Area of Sichuan Province / 公共卫生与预防医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the pathogenic characteristics and resistance of severe lung infection patients in Suining area, and to provide a reference for early clinical intervention. Methods A total of 359 patients with pulmonary infection were selected in Suining city from December 2019 to December 2020.The patients were divided into mild group (231 cases) and severe group (128 cases) according to the severity of nosocomial pneumonia.Sputum samples were collected for pathogen identification and drug sensitivity test. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of severe pulmonary infection. Results There were 128 cases of severe pneumonia in 359 patients with traumatic brain injury. 147 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated, including 91 strains (61.90%) of gram-negative bacteria, mainly including 42 strains (28.57%) of Acinetobacter baumannii, 29 strains (19.73%) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 16 strains (10.88%) of Klebsiella pneumoniae. There were 37 gram-positive strains (25.17%), and 31 strains (21.09%) were staphylococcus aureus. A total of 19 strains of fungi (12.93%); Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae were more sensitive to cefoperazone sodium sulbactam sodium and iaropenem, and more resistant to benzylbenzicillin, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprazine and cefazolin. Pseudomonas aeruginosa had higher sensitivity to ceftazidine, piperacillin/tazobactam, and higher resistance to cefazolin sodium, ampicillin and other drugs. Staphylococcus aureus was highly sensitive to linezolid, vancomycin and teicoranin, and had high resistance to cefazolin and penicillin. There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in age, GCS score, combined basic diseases >2, coma time >24h, hypoproteinemia and invasive operation (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that GCS score, hypoproteinemia and invasive operation were independent risk factors for severe pulmonary infection in patients with traumatic brain injuries (P<0.05). Conclusion Suining patients with gram-negative bacteria, mainly Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, aeruginosa, should be based on the pathogen susceptibility results of patients, for invasive operation, high GCS score should be positive treatment, and actively correct hypoproteinemia, can reduce the occurrence of severe lung infection.
