Clinical distribution and antimicrobial resistance of pathogens causing healthcare-associated infection in a comprehensive hospital / 中国感染控制杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To understand the clinical distribution characteristics and antimicrobial resistance of pathogens causing healthcare-associated infection(HAI) in a comprehensive hospital.Methods Clinical data of patients with HAI in this hospital between May 2012 and May 2015 were collected,the distribution and antimicrobial resistance of pathogens isolated from patients were analyzed.Results A total of 6 563 cases of HAI occurred among 183 850 patients,incidence of HAI was 3.57％,445 patients were isolated at least two kinds of pathogens,375 (84.27％) patients were isolated two kinds of pathogens,132 of whom were infected with both gram negative bacilli.4 478 specimens were sent for pathogenic detection,2 503 (55.90％) of which were isolated pathogens;a total of 2 755 pathogens were isolated,including 1 713(62.18％) strains of gram-negative bacilli,732(26.57％) gram positive cocci,304(11.03％) yeast-like fungi,and 6(0.22％) anaerobic bacteria.524(19.02％)strains were mainly from patients in department of neurology.The main specimen was sputum (n =1 340,48.64％).The isolation rates of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli (CREC),Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP),Acinetobacter baumnannii (CRAB),and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) were 0.39％ (2/510),1.66％ (3/181),59.14％ (207/ 350),and 5.29 ％ (11/208) respectively;isolation rate of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was 21.55％(25/116).Conclusion Multidrug-resistant organisms causing HAl are various,it is necessary to understand distribution characteristics and prevalence of pathogens,monitor multidrug-resistant organisms,and implement contact isolation measures,so as to prevent the outbreak of HAI.
