Abstract:
Objective To investigate the distribution and characteristics of drug resistance of pathogens in premature infants with ventilator‐associated pneumonia(VAP) ,and explore the therapeutic measures for premature infants with VAP ,so as to provide references for clinically reasonable administration of antibacterial agents .Methods A total of 54 cases of premature infants diag‐nosed with VAP in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University from January 2013 to June 2014 were enrolled in this study . Specimens of respiratory tract secretion were collected ,and species identification of pathogens and drug sensitivity test were per‐formed by VITEK 2 Compact system .Results A total of 69 strains were isolated .Gram negative bacteria was accounted for 94 .20% ,and gram positive bacteria was accounted for 5 .80% .Four of the most common pathogenic bacteria were Klebsiella pneu‐monia (29 strains ,42 .03% ) ,Enterobacter aerogenes (12 strains ,17 .39% ) ,Pseudomonas aeruginosa (10 strains ,14 .49% ) and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia(7 strains ,10 .14% ) .The results of antibiotics‐sensitivity tests showed that these strains were multi‐drug resistant to most commonly used antibiotics ,but sensitive to only a few antibiotics .Conclusion Gram‐negative bacteria are the major pathogens for premature infants with VAP in this hospital .Mixed infection and multidrug resistance are common .Therefore , the rational use of antibiotics according to drug sensitivity tests′results is critical in treating VAP .
