Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the drug resistance of pathogens in pediatric ICU and discuss how to treat infections caused by these resistant strains.METHODS After genus identification,bacterial susceptibility test was carried out using Kirby-Bauer disk method.RESULTS A total of 270 clinical isolates were analyzed including 194(72%) strains of Gram-negative bacilli and 76(28%) strains of Gram-positive cocci.From them 182(67%) strains were isolated from sputum,78(29%) strains from blood and 10(4%) strains from secretion.The most common bacilli were Klebsiella spp,coagulase negative Staphylococcus,Escherichia coli,Enterococcus spp and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.About 66.7% of E.coli and 91.1% of Klebsiella spp isolates produced ESBLs,the isolating rate of MRCNS was 83.9%.CONCLUSIONS The characteristics of pathogen distribution and drug resistance surveillance must be understood in order to use antibiotics rationally,to control the increasing trend of drug resistance pathogens and to forbid the break out of nosocomial infections.
