Abstract:
Objective To investigate the bacterial distribution and antibiotic resistance situation of urinary tract infection (UTI) among the inpatients following stroke. Methods The clinical data of pathogens from UTI in the stroke patients in our hospital from March 2009 to March 2011 were collected and analyzed with WHONET software. Results Among 203 strains from UTI, the most common pathogens were Escherichia coli (35.5%), Enterococcus (27.1%), Klebsiella (8.9%) and Fungi (10.8%). The main Gram negative bacilli were found highly resistant to ampicillin, levofloxacin and cefotaxim. 38.9% of Escherichia coli and 44.4% of Klebsiella produced extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) respectively. The rate of antibiotic resistance of Enterococcus was high to the most of antibiotics commonly used. The fungi were highly sensitive to the drugs. Conclusion Gram negative bacilli are the main pathogens of urinary tract infection in stroke inpatients. Drug resistant strains, especially those with severe multiple resistance, increase fast.
