Character of Hospital Infection and Multidrug Resistance of Citrobacter / 中华医院感染学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To investigate the flora distribution,enzyme producing and drug resistance of Citrobacter in our hospital,and analyzed multi drug resistance(MDR) character in order to guide the clinical medication.METHODS Totally 147 clinical isolates of Citrobacter were detected out ESBLs and AmpC ?-lactamases by three-dimensional test,MBL by the double-disk synergy test.at the same time,drug resistance to fifteen antibiotics was also detected by K-B method.RESULTS Hospital infection caused by Citrobacter.most commonly by C.freundii and then C.amalonaticus.Respiratory tract and urinary tract were prone to be infected than other sites(P0.05).The rate of ESBLs,AmpC,ESBLs+AmpC and MBL which produced by Citrobacter were 36.05% 10.20%,7.48% and 2.72%.The Citrobacter were sensitive to imipenem and meropenem,and their resistance rates to imipenem and meropenem were 4.76% and 3.40%,respectively.The resistance rate to cefoperazone/tazobactam was 23.81%.Otherwise,the resistance rate to 12 kinds of other antibiotics were all higher than 40.0%.MDR strains in the ICU ward were 81.08%,while in other wards were 53.64%,with significant difference(P
