Distribution and antimicrobial resistance of clinically isolated pathogens in hematology department from 2011 to 2013 / 中国感染控制杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the distribution and antimicrobial resistance of pathogens isolated from department of hematology during the past three years.Methods Pathogenic strains isolated from patients hospitalized in a hematology de-partment between January 2011 and December 2013 were collected,antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method or automatic system,antimicrobial susceptibility testing results were judged according to American Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute 2011, data were analyzed by WHONET 5.6 software. Results A total of 462 clinical isolates were collected in 2011—2013,including 161 gram-positive cocci isolates,279 gram-negative bacilli,and 22 fungi.Of Staphylococcus spp ,detection rate of methicillin-resistant coagulase negative Staphylo-coccus(MRCNS)and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)was 81.37% and 62.50%respectively.The re-sistant rate of Staphylococcus spp .and Enterococcus spp .to linezolid was 1.69% and 3.57% respectively,resistant rate of Staphylococcus spp .to teicoplanin was 3.39%,vancomycin-resistant gram-positive coccus was not found.Enterobacte-riaceae strains Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were highly susceptible to carbapenems,the sensitivity rates were 97.56%—98.88%;while nonfermentative gram-negative bacilli Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter bauman-nii strains were obviously resistant to carbapenems,the resistance rates were 38.71%—64.00%.Conclusion Antimicrobial resistance of major pathogenic strains from hematology department is high,antimicrobial agents should be used according to pathogenic distribution characteristics and antimicrobial susceptibility testing results,healthcare-associated infection control should be strengthened to reduce antimicrobial resistant rate.
