Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the antimicrobial susceptibility of 9 antimicrobial agents and multidrug(resistance)(MDR) phenotype among Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from hospitalized patients.METHODS Disk diffusion method was used to detect the inhibitory zone diameter of 9(antimicrobial) agents to 221 strains of A.baumannii.according to standard from NCCLS in South China during 2002 to 2004.RESULTS 25.3% and 26.4% of isolates from ICU patients showed resistance to(imipemem) and meropemem,respectively,and the resistance rates were greater among the(isolates) from ICU(patients) than those from non-ICU inpatients by 13.4% and 12.2 %(P
