Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the trends of susceptibility of Enterobacter cloacae isolates to antimicrobial agents from Shandong provincial nosocomial infection surveillance system. METHODS The data from Shandong provincial nosocomial infection surveillance system from Aug 2001 to Jul 2004 were summarized and analyzed.(RESULTS) In the period of study from Aug 2002 to Jul 2004,231 strains of E.cloacae were collected.The (sputum),(urine) and wounds were major specimens,and accounted for 55.41%, 10.82% and 9.96% from total(specimens),respectively.The resistant rates of E.cloacae isolates to antimicrobials,except imipenem,increased to some extend.CONCLUSIONS Antimicrobial resistance of clinical isolates of E.cloacae threatens the success of(infectious) disease treatment.It is very important to promote the rational use of antimicrobial agents for control of resistance and to take effective measures for the prevention of infections.
