Abstract:
Objective To study the homology and clinical characteristics of healthcare-associated infection(HAI) due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P.aeruginosa)in medical intensive care unit (MICU),so as to guide the clinical prevention of P.aeruginosa transmission and improve therapeutic effect.Methods 55 P.aeruginosa strains isola-ted from 25 patients with HAI in the MICU of a hospital in January-December 2014 were performed pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE)homology analysis and clustering analysis,clinical characteristics,antimicrobial resistance, and transmission characteristics were analyzed.Results A total of 25 patients were investigated,with an average age of (69.62±2.13)years,mean hospital stay (49.34±3.18)days;prior to the isolation of P.aeruginosa, 84.00% of patients were treated with broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents for >2 weeks,76.00% of patients had been admitted to MICU,and 52.00% had a ventilator-assisted ventilation.55 strains of P.aeruginosa were mainly A,F,H,K,N,V,and W,which were the main epidemic strains;patients infected with A,F,H and K strains all had cross in their hospital stay;PFGE profiles of isolates from 4 patients during different periods showed different strain patterns;resistance rates of P.aeruginosa to ceftazidime (72.73%), piperacillin/tazobactam (70.91%),and imipenem(70.91%)were all high,resistance rate to amikacin was the lowest(25.45%).Conclusion Management of antimicrobial agents should be strengthened in medical institutions,HAI control meas-ures should be strengthened,so as to prevent the transmission of multidrug-resistant and extensively drug-resistant bacteria in hospitals.
