OBJECTIVE To explore the pathogen distribution and their resistance in ICU of Geriatric hospital.METHODS 111 strains isolated from lower respiratory tract were collected from Sep 2006 to August 2007.The antibiotic resistance were tested.RESULTS Among 111 strains,G-strains accounted for 70.27%,in which Pseudomonas aeruginosa was the most common(20.72%).The G+bacteria were multi-resistant to most of the antibiotics except impenem.CONCLUSIONS The most common pathogens in ICU of geriatric hospital is G-bacteria with multi-resistance.The Antibiotics should be selected reasonably.
