Abstract:
Objective To survey the antimicrobial resistance of nosocomial Klebsiella Pneumoniae (Kpn) isolates. Methods All the 68 Kpn strains were isolated and collected from nosocomial infections during April 2002 to March 2003. The susceptivity of bacteria and the production of extended spectrum ?-lactamases (ESBLs) were determined by Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion test and phenotypic confirmatory testing, respectively. Results All 68 Kpn strains were 100% susceptible to Menopenem and Imipenem but resistant to 14 other antimicrobials to different degrees. The first five drugs of high resistant rate were ampicillin (100%), amoxycillin/clavulanic acid (79.4%), sulphamethoxazole/trimothoprim (67.6%), cefotaxime (58.8%), gentamycin (47.0%). There were 28 isolates producing ESBLs (41.2%), which showed much higher resistance to ?-lactam, aminoglycosides, quinolones and sulphamethoxazole/trimothoprim than the non-ESBLs-producing strains. Conclusion Nosocomial Kpn isolates were most multidrug resistant, of which ESBLs-producing strains showed a higher resistance and which may involve other resistant mechanisms.
