Abstract:
Objective To explore the infection distribution and drug resistance of pathogens in patients with severe liver disease,and provide reference for clinical medication.Methods Retrospective analysis of the microbiological specimens from patients with severe liver disease in Department of Infection of our hospital from August 2014 to November 2016 and the drug susceptibility testing were carried out by means of K-B disc diffusion method after bacterial culturing,and the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens were analyzed.Results Totally 17 of 73 patients with severe liver disease developed hospital infection (23.3%).104 strains of bacteria were isolated and 78 strains out of them were multidrug-resistant bacteria (75.0%).Among them,28(26.9%) strains were gram-positive coccus,mainly consisting of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis,and 58(55.8%) were gram-negative coccus,mainly composed of Escherichia coli,Klebsiella pneumonia and Acinetobacter baumannii,and 18(17.3%) strains fungi.S.aureus and enterococci were resistant to penicillin,erythromycin and levofloxacin,the resistance rates were above 80.0%,but had low resistance rates to vancomycin,teicoplanin and tigecycline.The resistance rates of E.coli and K.pneumoniae to piperacillin,cefazolin and cefuroxime sodium were above 85.0%,but they had lower resistance rates to tigecycline and amikacin.Acinetobacter baumannii was 100% resistant to piperacillin and tazobactam,ceftazidime,imipenem and amikacin,but had low resistance to tigecycline and minocycline.Conclusions Multi-drug resistant bacteria are the main bacterial pathogens in patients with severe liver disease and have a high resistance rate to commonly used antibiotics,empirical treatment in the population at high risk of multidrug-resistant bacteria infections requires the use of broad-spectrum or high-grade antibiotics (e.g.carbapenems or tigecycline) and drugs against specific pathogenic bacteria (glycopeptides,linezolid,and amikacin etc).Early de-escalation policies are recommended to prevent the spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria in cirrhosis.
