ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To study drug resistance status of infected bacteria in abdominal surgical wound for their countermeasures. METHODS The abdominal surgical infection of a hospital was investigated from Jan 2000 to Dec 2004.Bacterial isolation and identification were carried out complying with National Operation Procedure of The Clinical Laboratory.Drug sensitivity test was performed with KB method. RESULTS The infection rate was 4.1%.The species were predominated by Gram-negative bacilli(71.1%),especially Escherichia coli(17.2%),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(16.7%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae(12.7%),and they all beared high antibiotics resistance. CONCLUSIONS Special attention should be paid to abdominal surgical wound infection.
