Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate antibiotic resistance and distribution of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus(MRS) and provide reference evidence in using antibiotics reasonably.METHODS Antibiotic susceptibility test was performed by K-B method and MRS were identified according to NCCLS(1999,2004).RESULTS Among 253 strains of Staphylococcus,meticillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA) isolated ratio was 29.9% and meticillin-resistant coagulate-negative S.aureus(MRCNS)was 31.3%.The resistant ratio to clindamycin,erythromycin and ciprofloxacin in MRSA and MRCNS were higher than in meticillin-sensitive Staphylococcus(MSS) significantly.CONCLUSIONS The isolating ratio of MRSA and MRCNS is on rise.We should pay more attention to the identification and report of resistant strains and it is important to supervise nosocomial infection caused by Staphylococcus efficiently.
