Abstract:
At Thanh Nhan Hospital, Hanoi from November 2001 to August 2002, 151 children aged 1-6 months with pneumonia were studied. Most of bacteria causing pneumonia were resisted to Co-trimoxazole and common antibiotics. H.influenza resisted to Co-trimoxazole (66.67%), to cephalothin (50%); S.pneumoniae resisted to erythromycine (86.66%), to oxocillin (85.71%), to cefaclor (66.67%), to cefoperazon (50%), Co-trimoxazole (53.33%); S.pyogenes resisted to cefoperazon (50%), Co-trimoxazole (50%), gentamycin (43.56%), penicillin (40%), erythromycin (33.33%). S.aureus resisted strongly to common antibiotics as oxacillin (100%), erythromycin (100%), gentamycine (66.67%), chloramphenicol (66.67%), tetracyclin (66.67%), to Co-trimoxazol and to norfloxacin. Related factors causing antibiotics resistence were: the use of antibiotics in a single episode or more episodes in children. In appropriate indication of antibiotics by parents, in terms of the type of antibiotics, the dose and the method of use
