Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To study clinical distribution of Serratia and learn the antimicrobial susceptibility to S.marcescens in vitro in order to offer the reference to optimally selecting antibiotic.METHODS It was analyzed that the 222 Serratia strains were distributed in and the was deteted 164 S.marcescens strains were isolated from our hospital from 2001 to 2006.Their VITEK-2 of French Bio-M?rieux Company was adopted to proceed the identification of bacteria and antimicrobial susceptibility test.Data were analyzed by WHONET 5.4.RESULTS Serratia were mainly isolated from sputum,urine,blood,secretion,bile,cerebrospinal fluid,abdominal fluid,et al.Infection of both in-and out-patients could be caused by Serratia and most were in surgery ward.S.marcescens had higher drug resistance rates to piperacillin,cefazolin,cefuroxime,gentamicin and tobramycin which were all above 60%.They were all susceptible to imipenem(minimum inhibitory concentration only 1 ?g/ml) and their susceptible rates to piperacillin/tazobactam,ceftazidime,cefepime,and levofloxacin were all higher than 80%.CONCLUSIONS Serratia are less isolated from clinics,but have much higher antimicrobial resistance to the 1st and 2nd generation cephalosporin and show diversely drug resistance to 3rd cephalosporin,so physicians should pay attention to the infection caused by them.
