Abstract:
Objective To observe the pathogens and drug-resistance of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) patients in emergency intensive care unit (EICU) for rational antibiotic therapy and the prevention of VAP. Method The sputum culture results and drug-resistance of pathogens of VAP patients in EICU from 2007 to 2009 were collected. Results One hundred and two mechanical ventilation patients were selected. VAP was occurred in 70 patients (68.6%). One hundred and fifty-seven pathogens had been examined,including 92 Gram-negative bacilli (58.6%),35 Gram-positive cocci (22.3%) and 30 fungus (19.1%). Pseudomonas aeruginosa and meticillin-resistant-staphylococcus aureus was 22 strains (14.0%)respectively, stenotrop homonas maltophilia was 21 strains (13.4%) and acinetobacter baumanii was 17 strains (10.8%). Fifty-nine patients (84.3%) had suffered from multiple pathogen infection, with 31 cases having 2 pathogens and 28 cases having 3 pathogens. Conclusions Pseudomonas aeruginosaa,methicillinresistant staphylococcus, stenotrophomonas maltophilia and acinetobacter baumanii are main pathogens of VAP in EICU patients,and candida albicans is still the main pathogens in fungal infection. The rate of multiple pathogen infection is very high, and the problem of drug-resistance is very severe.
