Chinese Journal of Nosocomiology 2006;0(09):-
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens in patients of liver cirrhosis combined with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis(SBP),and provide the credible evidence with the clinic diagnosis and the treatment of SBP.METHODS Totally 113 cases of hospitalized cirrhotic patients with SBP were admitted to our hospital between Mar,2000 and Dec,2005.Ascitic fluids of all cases were cultured.The total 114 strains of pathogens were identified and the drug resistance was analyzed.RESULTS Escherichia coli among the pathogens infected the ascitic fluids rated the top(39.5%),the next were Klebsiella pneumoniae,Enterobacter cloacae and Acinetobacter baumannii.The drug resistance of E.coli to imipenem was the lowest,about 2.2%.CONCLUSIONS The diagnosis of SBP with cirrhosis mainly depended on both of ascites results and clinical symptoms.The clinic should reasonably choose the antibiotics according to the test results of the pathogens sensitivity to drugs.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the ?-lactamase genes and virulence gene in Escherichia coli isolated from the old patients.METHODS Twenty strains of E. coli were selected to test 15 kinds of ?-lactamase genes (TEM,SHV,CTX-M-1 group,CTX-M-2 group,CTX-M-9 group,OXA-1 group,OXA-2 group,OXA-10 group,PER,GES,VEB/CEF,CARB,DHA,ACT/MIR and LAT/CMY) and two virulence genes (CNF-1 and CNF-2).RESULTS Six ?-lactamase genes and one virulence gene have been found out from these 20 strains of E. coli. The results showed that there were 14,3,1,5,2,2 and 1 strain which carried TEM,SHV,CTX-M-1 group,OXA-1 group,DHA,ACT/MIR and CNF-1,respectively. These 20 E. coli strains contained at least 1 ?-lactamase gene and 7 E. coli strains were found containing more than 2 kinds of ?-lactamase at the same time.CONCLUSIONS The resistance of these 20 E. coli strains to ?-lactam antibiotics is closely relative to ?-lactamase.

OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical features of Acinetobacter baumannii lung infection and drug resistance situation.METHODS An analysis was conducted on clinical features and risk factors of 79 cases of A.baumannii lung infection in elderly patients from Jan 2005 to Jun 2008.Drug resistance of A.baumannii to 12 kinds of antimicrobial drugs such as ciprofloxacin,ceftazidime,ceftriaxone,imipenem and amikacin was tested.RESULTS An onset of A.baumannii infections in the lungs of elderly patients usually appeared during the critical period of some underlying diseases.More clinical manifestations as fever,lung and wet La-hypoxemia existed.Accepting antibiotic therapy,pulmonary diseases,mechanical ventilation,ICU wards,etc were the risk factors.There was a high mortality rate with multi-drug resistant(MDR) A.baumannii.Bacterial resistance to cefoperazone/sulbactam,piperacillin/tazobactam was lower while its resistance to other antibiotics was higher.The detection rate of MDR was 37.97%.CONCLUSIONS Elderly patients with A.baumannii infection have a high incidence of lung infection,but lacking characteristic clinical signs and symptoms.There is an increasing trend in the detection rate of MDR.It is of great significance to reduce the incidence rate of A.baumannii lung infection and prevent the spread of multi-drug resistant strains by strengthening the monitoring of pathogens and their resistance and choosing antibiotics according to susceptibility testing.

OBJECTIVE To understand the pathogens spectrum of tuberculosis patients with lower respiratory tract infection in hospital and the drug resistance,so as to provide guidance of rational drug use.METHODS 576 pathogens isolated from the sputum samples of TB patients with lower respiratory tract infection in hospital from 2005 to 2007 and the drug resistance were analyzed.ESBLs test was conducted on the Gram-negative bacill.RESULTS Gram-negative bacilli accounted for 73.6 percent.The first six ones were: Pseudomonas aeruginosa(19.4%),Acinetobacter baumannii(12.0%),Klebsiella pneumoniae(11.1%),E.coli(9.9%),Staphylococcus aureus(9.2%),Candida albicans(8.2%).They were highly sensitive to impinem,Cefoperazone-sulbactam.The drug resistance rates of ESBLs produceing P.aeruginosa and A.baumannii were respectively 2.7%-30.3% and 8.7%-30.4%.The resistance of MRSA to B-lactamase,Fluoroquinolone and Aminoglycoside was 64.7%-100.0%.ESBLs produceing E.coli and K.pneumoniae strains accounted for 52.6% and 45.3%.CONCLUSIONS Lower respiratory tract infection of tuberculosis patients was mainly caused by Gram-negative bacilli,most of which was portunistic pathogens.The pathogens resistance to antibiotics are increasing E.coli and K.pneumoniae produce a higher proportion of EBSLs.To delay the formation of pathogen resistance and control the hospital infection,it is important to enhance drug monitoring and rational use of antibiotics.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the genes of disinfectant-sulfadiazine and antibiotic resistance of Escherichia coli strains in elderly wards.METHODS Polymerase chain reaction and dilution test were used to detect and analyze the disinfectant-sulfadizane drug resistance gene and drug resistance of the E.coli.RESULTS From 30 E.coli strains isolated from elderly patients,21 were detected carrying disinfectant-sulfadizine drug resistance genes,and the positive rate of qacE△1-sulⅠ was 70.0%.CONCLUSIONS The detection rate of disinfectant-sulfadiazine drug resistance gene from E.coli strains isolated from elderly patients,the bacteria detection rates are relatively high.Most of the isolates were resistant to commonly used antibiotics.It suggests that clinical drug-resistant strains may be resistant to disinfectants.This condition should be paid much attention by disinfection wotkers of our country.
