RESUMEN
Introducción. La resistencia bacteriana es un problema de salud pública a nivel mundial, cuyo adecuado manejo implica el conocimiento de su presencia y comportamiento en cada uno de los países y regiones del mundo.Objetivos. Describir el perfil de resistencia a los distintos antimicrobianos marcadores en microorganismos Gram positivos identificados en hospitales colombianos.Materiales y métodos. Se realizó una revisión sistemática de la literatura indexada en Medline y Lilacs, además de la búsqueda manual de todos los números en revistas colombianas reconocidas y afines a la infectología para identificar referencias no disponibles electrónicamente.Resultados. De 34 estudios observacionales, sólo se cuenta con reportes consecutivos en años a partir del 2001, estos principalmente para Bogotá. La tasa de resistencia a la meticilina de Staphylococcus aureus y estafilococos coagulasa negativos en Bogotá, de aislamientos en servicios diferentes a la unidad de cuidados intensivos, oscilan de 35 % a 50 % y de 72 % a 76 %, respectivamente; en aislamientos de la unidad de cuidados intensivos, la resistencia osciló de 35 % a 71 % y de 74 % a 83 %, respectivamente. La tasa de resistencia a vancomicina para Enterococcus faecium en Bogotá es menor de 20 % con variaciones muy grandes con el paso de los años. Conclusiones. Hay una alta resistencia a los antibióticos marcadores en los aislamientos de Gram positivos identificados en hospitales de las principales ciudades colombianas.
ABSTRACT
Introduction. Bacterial resistance is a public health problem worldwide whose proper management requires knowledge of its presence and its behavior in each region and country. Objectives. A survey of the medical literature was conducted to identify levels of resistance to antibiotic markers in Gram positive bacterial isolates from Colombian hospitals. Materials and methods. A systematic review of the literature included articles indexed in MEDLINE and LILACS. A manual search was made of Colombian scientific journals and other infectious disease literature not available electronically. Results. A total of 34 observational studies were located, including a series of consecutive reports initiated in 2001. Most of the reports came from the city of Bogota. The rate of methicillin resistance for Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci in non intensive care unit isolates ranged between 35%-50% and 72%-76%, respectively. Resistance in intensive care unit isolates had a range between 35%-71% and 74%-83%, respectively. The rate of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium averaged less than 20% over the years but with large annual variation . Conclusions. Resistance markers appeared in high frequency among Gram positive isolates identified in hospitals in major Colombian cities.
