Abstract:
Objective To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria in children with urinary tract infection.Methods All data were analyzed retrospectively.Middle segment urine samples from 573 outpatients and inpatients in children were collec-ted,cultured and identified for pathogenic bacteria by the way of ATB apparatus during Jan.2005-Dec.2007,and the drug resistance of positively cultured bacteria was tested with disc agar diffusion method.Extended spectrum ?-lactamases(ESBLs) were determined by phenotypic comfirmatory test according to the criteria of National Committee for Clinical Laboratory(NCCLS),and the identifications of methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus(MRS) and high level aminoglycoside resistance(HLAR) were carried out by the methods recommended from NCCLS too.Results Four hundred and eighty-two pathogenic strains were isolated from urine culture of children during 3 years,in which 385 strains(79.9%) were gram-negative(G-) and 97 strains(20.1%) were gram-positve(G+).The primary G-bacterium was Escherichia coli which accounted for 41.1%(198 strains),and the primary G+ bacterium was Enterococcus which accounted for 14.7%(71 strains).All the strains of Escherichia coli and klebsiella pneumoniae were sensitive to imipenem.Their resistance rates to sulperazone,amikacin and nitrofurantoin were less than 9.7%,while the rates to piperacillin,ceftazidime,ciprofloxacin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole were more than 50%.ESBLs-producing strains accounted for 59.2% in Escherichia coli and 52.7% in klebsiella pneumoniae.Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed high multi-drug resistance.All the Enterococcus strains were sensitive to vancomycin.The resistance rate to nitrofurantoin was less than 8.1%.The detection rate of HLAR was 26.1%.All the Staphylococcus strains were sensitive to vancomycin.The resistance rate to nitrofurantoin and rifampicin were less than 22.4%.The detection rate of MRS was 52.7%.Conclusions The primary pathogenic bacterium in children with urinary tract infection is G-bacteria.The Escherichia coli is the first,the Enterococcus is the second and the klebsiella pneu-moniae is the third.All the pathogenic strains show high drug resistance to antibiotics in common use,therefore,clinicians should attach importance to the results from bacteria culture and susceptibility test,in order to obtian reference for accurate clinical diagnosis and rational use of antibiotics.
