Epidemiological survey of nosocomial infection of imipenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in Beijing Shijitan Hospital / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the homology relationship among clinically isolated imipenem-resistant klebsiella pneumoniae strains and possible transmission route of drug resistant strains to provide a basis for blocking the transmission of this kind of bacteria in clinc.Methods Clinical samples collection and bacterial culture were routinely conducted,meanwhile the hand surface of ICU medical staffs and the surfaces of patien's bedside objects were performed the sample collection for conducting the bacterial count and culture.The bacterial identification and drug susceptibility test were performed by the VITEK-2 COMPACT system.The bacterial homology detection adopted the ERIC-rep-PCR method.Results Totally 642 strains of imipenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae were clinically isolated from January 2011 to December 2013.Among them,389 strains(60.59％) were derived from ICU.72 strains (11.21％) fsrom the respiratory department,53 strains (8.26％) from the neurology department,41 strains (6.39 ％) from the cardiovascular department,31 strains (4.83％) from the surgical department,11 strains (1.71％) from the gastroenterology department,5 strains (0.78 ％) from the renal department,17 strains (2.65 ％) from the emergency department and 23 strains(3.58％) from the other departments.One strain of imipenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae was isolated from the IGU object surface.Among 642 clinical bacterial strains,there were 8 main clones,these 8 clone strains added up to 394 strains,which accounted for 61.37％ of whole bacterial strains,the other 248 strains were single clones.Conclusion The monoclonal prevalence of imipenem-resistant klebsiella pneumonia in this hospital actually exists.The contact transmission may be the possible transmission route of this kind of infection.
