Distribution and Antibacterial Resistance of Nosocomial Infection Pathogens in Hospital / 中华医院感染学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To investigate the tendency of bacterial distribution and resistance of hospitial infections,and to provide the reference for the clinical treatment and infection control in hospital.METHODS Bacteria isolated from patients in our hospital from Jan 2004 to Dec 2005 were identified by ATB expression,and bacterial susceptibility tests were performed on strains using Kirby-Bauer method.RESULTS A total of 3066 pathogens strains were isolated,among them 927 strains were Gram-positive cocci(30.2%).The most common pathogens of them were Staphylococcus.Meticillin resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase negative Staphylococcus(CNS) accounted for 69.0% and 77.6%,respectively.In our data,no vancomycin resistant S.aureus were isolated.There were 2134 strains of Gram-negative bacilli(69.6%),the most common pathogens of them were Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Escherichia coli,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Acinetobacter baumannii and Enterobacter cloacae.The ESBLs producing strains of E.coli and K.pneumoniae accounted for 30.1% and 40.1%,respectively.The highest susceptible to Gram-negative bacilli was carbapenem,then were cefoperazone/sulbactam,piperacillin /tazobactam and cefepime.Mainly pathogenic bacteria were multi-resistant to some antibiotics.CONCLUSIONS Drug resistance of the nosocomial infection bacteria is a serious problem.It's important and urgent to carry out surveillance of bacterial resistance for appropriate using of antibiotics and effective controlling nosocomial infections.
