Abstract:
Objective To investigate the bacterial distribution and resistance to antibiotics of severely burned patients in our institute.Methods The bacteria culture of secretions from burn wounds was performed and bacterial susceptibility testing was carried out using Kirby-Bauer method.The correlation data were compared with those of years 1985～1998. Results gramnegative bacteria were still more than grampositive ones. Pseudomonas aeruginosa took the first place in gramnegative bacteria and staphylococcus aureus was the most often dectected grampositive bacteria. Almost all isolated bacteria had an increasing drug resistance to frequently used antibiotics. Conclusions More efforts should be put on to the regular bacteriological surveys and antibiotics usage to postpone the occurrence of drug resistance of bacteria and lengthen the effective period of antibiotics.
