Abstract:
Objective To investigate clinical features,drug resistance,risk factors and prognosis of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs)-producing Escherichia coli infection in hospitalized newborns.Methods Sixty eight newborns infected with ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli admitted in Neonatal Ward of Ningbo Women and Children's Hospital during.January 2010 and January 2013 were enrolled in the study; 81 newborns infected with multiple resistant non-ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli served as controls.The drug sensitivity of the isolated ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli was tested using K-B method.Clinical data including birth weight,gestational age,mode of delivery,site of infection and disease outcome were analyzed.Logistic regression analysis was performed to study the risk factors for ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli infection.Results The highest positive rate of ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli was detected in sputum samples (49/68,72.1%),followed by blood (7/68,10.3%) and urine (6/68,8.8%) samples.Strains were highly resistant to ampicillin,cefotaxime,ceftazidime and cefepime (61.8%-100.0%),but the resistant rates to cefoxitin,cefoperazone/sulbactam and amikacin were low (2.9%-10.3%),and were completely sensitive to carbapenems.Lower respiratory tract infections were most popular in both groups,but in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli infected group,lower respiratory tract infection rate in late newborns was higher than that in early newborns (x2 =12.879,P < 0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that gestational age < 37 weeks (Exp (B) =0.352,95% CI:0.134-0.929),cesarean section (Exp (B) =0.488,95 % CI:0.243-0.984),invasive procedures (Exp (B) =0.363,95 % CI:0.142-0.927),use of hormones and/or antibiotics one week before birth (Exp (B)=0.325,95% CI:0.127-0.833) were independent risk factors for ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli infection.Conclusions Respiratory tract infection is popular in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli infection in hospitalized newborns.The strains are highly resistant to most antibiotics.Reducing invasive procedures,strict control of cesarean section and prenatal use of hormones and antibiotics may reduce the infection of ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli in newborns.
