Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To learn the clinical features of patients infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae in our hospital.METHODS: From 2006 and 2007,a total of 96 inpatients in our hospital that were confirmed to be infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae by sputum culture were collected for a study of their clinical features and drug susceptibility test results.RESULTS: Patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae infection represented 12.7% of the total concurrent pulmonary infection cases,of which,57 Klebsiella pneumoniae infection cases had concurrent pulmonary tuberculosis(TB),and 39 Klebsiella pneumoniae infection cases had no concurrent TB.Drug susceptibility tests showed that the resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae to third generation cephalosporins and quinolones were higher than those reported in the literature,and the resistant rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae to quinolones in Klebsiella pneumoniae infection patients complicated with TB was higher than those without TB.CONCLUSION: Klebsiella pneumoniae infection was more common in patients with low body resistance,which has typical clinical manifestations.Recently,the resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae to the third generation cephalosporin has been increasing,and its resistance to quinolones in patients with pneumonia Klebsiella infection complicated with TB was significantly higher than in those without TB.
