Abstract:
Objective To understand the distribution and drug resistance profiles of common clinical isolates in the intensive care unit(ICU)of a hospital in Xi'an.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the antimicrobial susceptibility test results of clinical bacterial isolates in ICU of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 1,2020 to December 31,2022.Results A total of 3 649 clinical isolates were isolated from the ICU,including 1 344(36.8％)strains of Gram-positive bacteria and 2 305(63.2％)strains of Gram-negative bacteria.The most common bacterial species were Klebsiella spp.(14.8％,540/3 649),Enterococcus spp.(14.3％,522/3 649),coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(12.3％,448/3 649),Acinetobacter spp.(12.0％,438/3 649),and Escherichia coli(11.6％,424/3 649).The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRS A),methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis(MRSE),and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(MRCNS)was 76.1％,82.4％,and 69.9％,respectively.MRSA,MRSE,and MRCNS strains showed significantly higher antimicrobial resistance rates than MSSA,MSSE,and MSCNS except for trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole.No Staphylococcus strains were found resistant to vancomycin or linezolid.Enterococcus faecium demonstrated higher antimicrobial resistance rates than Enterococcus faecalis.No Enterococcus isolates were found resistant to vancomycin.Two strains of linezolid-resistant E.faecalis were identified.Klebsiella pneumoniae showed high resistance rates to imipenem and meropenem(38.4％and 40.2％,respectively).Less than 2.0％of the Escherichia coli strains were resistant to imipenem and meropenem,while more than 10.0％of the Enterobacter cloacae were resistant to imipenem and meropenem.About 27.1％and 19.6％of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were resistant to imipenem and meropenem,respectively.Acinetobacter baumannii showed high resistance rates to imipenem and meropenem(86.0％and 86.7％,respectively).Conclusions K.pneumoniae and A.baumannii strains isolated from the intensive care unit showed high resistance rates to carbapenems.Other species of Enterobacterales are still susceptible to carbapenems at a low resistance rate.Linezolid-resistant strain was identified in Enterococcus spp.No cross resistance to vancomycin was found in Enterococcus isolates.Therefore,it is necessary to strengthen the surveillance of antimicrobial resistance and use antibiotics reasonably for controlling hospital infections.
