Abstract:
Objective To investigate the difference in healthcare-associated infection (HAI)status and antimicro-bial resistance of Acinetobacterbaumannii(A.baumannii)isolated from different wards,so as to provide evidence for effective prevention and therapy for HAI caused by A.baumannii.Methods Clinical data of 446 A.baumannii isolates from hospitalized patients between January 2012 and July 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. Results The majority of 446 A.baumanniiisolates were from patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU,n= 236,52.92% ), followed by departments of respiratory diseases(n= 55,12.33% )and neurosurgery (n= 48,10.76% ),and the strains were mainly isolated from sputum specimens (94.62% ).Antimicrobial susceptibility testing with 13 kinds of commonly used antimicrobial agents showed that antimicrobial resistance of A.baumanniifrom ICU were highest, susceptibility rates were all<20% ,the next were from department of neurosurgery,susceptibility rates were all<30% ,while susceptibility rates of A.baumanniifrom department of respiratory diseases were all >50% .Conclu-sion The difference in antimicrobial resistance of A.baumanniifrom different wards varied significantly,antimi-crobial resistance of A.baumanniifrom ICU is most serious.
