Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To determine the distribution and drug resistance characteristic of pathogens from(nosocomial) lower respiratory tract infection in wards of respiratory disease and direct clinical doctors to select(antibiotics) correctly.METHODS A total of 159 strains of pathogens from sputum samples of patients with(respiratory) tract infection in wards of respiratory disease in our hospital were identified and the drug resistance tests were performed.In addition,ESBLs-producing G~-bacilli were also detected.RESULTS Among 159 strains from respiratory tract infection,G~-bacilli rated the top one(69.8%),The most common pathogens were Pseudomonas aeruginosa(14.5%),Klebsiella pneumoniae(13.8%),Acinetobacter baumannii(10.7%),(Staphylococcus) aureus(10.7%),and fungi(9.4%).10.8% G~-bacilli produced ESBLs.CONCLUSIONS G~-(bacilli) are the main infectious pathogens in respiratory infection and antibiotic resistance rates continue to(evolve).Therefore bacterial culture and antibiotic susceptibility tests are very important to select antibiotics(correctl)y for treatment of the infections in wards of respiratory disease.
