Abstract:
Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance of clinical isolates in Tongling People′s Hospital during 2013. Methods A total of 2 281 nonduplicate clinical isolates were collected.Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method was employed to study the antimicrobial susceptibility.The data were analyzed with WHONET 5.6 software according to CLSI 2012 breakpoints. Results The top 5 most frequently isolated microorganisms were E.coli (479,21.0%),K.pneumoniae (360,15.8%),A. baumannii (271,11.9%),P .aeruginosa (240,10.5%),S.aureus (171,7.5%).Gram negative and gram positive microorganisms accounted for 76.5% and 23.5%,respectively.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in S.aureus (MRSA)and coagulase negative Staphylococcus (MRCNS)was 38.6% and 73.1%,respectively.The resistance rates of MR strains to beta-lactams and other antimicrobial agents were much higher than those of MS strains.No staphylococcal strain was found resistant to vancomycin or teicoplanin.E.faecalis showed relatively lower resistance to penicillin,ampicillin and nitrofurantoin.E.faecium strains were more resistant than E.faecalis to most of the antibiotics tested.Approximately 50.5% of E.coli and 44.5% of Klebsiella isolates produced extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs).The ESBLs-respectively.And 29.8% and 23.4% of the P .aeruginosa strains were resistant to imipenem and meropenem.Nearly all (94.0%)P .aeruginosa isolates were susceptible to amikacin.Conclusions There appears a trend of increasing resistance in the clinical bacterial isolates in this hospital,especially the carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae,which is of great concern.It is mandatory to take effective antibiotic policy and infection control measures.
