Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To analyze the pathogenic distribution and antimicrobial resistance in respiratory ward and provide the rational information to use antibiotics reasonably. METHODS All pathogens isolated from patients in a respiratory ward from 2005 to 2007 and drug susceptibility results were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS Totally 264 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated,in which 68 strains of Gram-positive bacteria,165 strains of Gram-negative bacteria and 31 strains of fungi.MRSA prevalence was 77.1% and showed a trend of increase.No vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus or Enterococcus was detected.The resistance rate of Streptoccocus pneumoniae to penicillin,erythromycin and levofloxacin was 44.4-66.7%.Enterobacter and Acinetobacter baumannii showed stable susceptibility to imipenem.Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were relatively susceptible to cefoperazone /sulbactam,amikacin,gentamicin,piperacillin/tazobactam,ceftazidine,cefepime,cefoperazone and imipenem. CONCLUSIONS The changes in pathogens and antibiotic resistance in the respiratory ward are consistent with the surveillance data in this country,Gram-negative bacteria are still the most common pathogens and the serious degree of bacterial drug resistance is increasing.Our data are useful for the guidance of rational use of antibiotics.
