Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical feature and antimicrobial susceptibility of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia nosocomial infection or colonization,so as to give guidence of preventing and treating of it.METHODS The clinical and laboratory data of 128 cases with S.maltophilia nosocomial infection or colonization from Jan 1998 to Aug 2006 were reviewed retrospectively.RESULTS Of the total 128 strains,94.5% were isolated from lower respiratory tract and 68.8% were colonization.All of the strains,88.3% were isolated from intensive care unit,97.7% had the invasive operation,100% had the serious underlying diseases and 100% once applied the broad spectrum antibiotics,S.maltophilia was multi-drug resistant,its resistance rate to gentamicin,tobramycin,amikacin,cefepime,ceftazidine,ceftriuxone,imipenem,aztreonam,piperacillin were 92.2%,87.5%,82.0%,79.5%,55.1%,93.7%,99.2%,97.7% and 73.4% respectively.CONCLUSIONS The most of infections are in lower respiratory tract and the pathogens were colonized.The independent risk factor is staying in the ICU and another is treatment with broad spectrum antibiotics,especially used carbapenems.The S.maltophilia isolates are multi-drug resistant.ICU environment disinfection and the medical appliance sterilization,staff′s aseptic consciousness,the standardized operation and the reasonable antibiotics application are the effective actions for reducing S.maltophilia nosocomial infection or colonization.
