Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To monitor the antimicrobial resistance of Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium in our hospital from 2006 to 2008 in order to provide reference for clinical rational use of antibiotics.METHODS:The susceptibility of isolated enterococci was determined by K-B paper diffusion method,and the antibiotic resistance rates of Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus Faecium were analyzed using Whonet 5 software.RESULTS:Vancomycin was the most sensitive antimicrobial against Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium.E.faecalis had low resistance rates to penicillin G,high concentration gentamicin,ciprofloxacin and rifampicin,while E.faecium had low resistance rates to high concentration streptomycin,tertracycline,chloromycetin,and qinupristin/dalforpristin.CONCLUSION:E.faecalis and E.faecium are multi-drug resistant.Antimicrobials should be used rationally based on the susceptibility test of E.faecalis and E.faecium.
