Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the bacterial resistance of clinical isolates from pediatric hospital for the guidance of rational use of antibiotics.METHODS Disc diffusion test(Kirby-Bauer method) was used to study the antimicrobial resistance(fastidious bacteria were detected by E test).WHONET5 was applied for analysis.(RESULTS) In the period of study from 2002 to 2003,2 303 strains which were the first isolated from each patient were collected.Of 2 303 clinical isolates,Gram positive organisms accounted for 29.7%,Gram negative ones for 70.3%.Escherichia coli,Klebsiella spp,Staphylococcus aureus,coagulase-negative staphylococci and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were the most common strains among the isolates.Meticillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA) and meticillin-resistant coagulase(-negative) staphylococci(MRCNS) accounted for 9.7% and 67.6% of S.aureus and coagulase-negative(staphylococci),respectively.Resistant rates of MRSA and MRCNS were higher than that of meticillin-susceptible S.aureus(MSSA) and meticillin-susceptible coagulase-negative staphylococci(MSCNS) to antimicrobial agents commonly used in clinic.No vancomycin resistant strains of staphylococci were found. 4.1% of Enterococcus spp were vancomycin resistant strains.Resistant rate of Streptococcus pneumoniae was 11.9% to penicillin. Most of isolates of Enterobacteriaceae were susceptible to imipenem.The incidences of E.coli and Klebsiella spp producing extended spectrum beta-lactamases(ESBLs) isolates were 49.7% and 63.1%,respectively.The resistance rates of(ESBLs) producing strains to antimicrobial agents(except carbapenems) were higher than those of ESBLs nonproducing ones.CONCLUSIONS Bacterial resistance is still or even a more serious clinical problem than before.The(surveillance) of antimicrobial susceptibility in pediatric hospital is of great significance.It is also very important to promote the rational use of antimicrobial agents so that resistance is minimized and take effective strategy for the control of the problem.
