Objective To evaluate Cica-Beta Test kit for detection of metallo-β-lactamase-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAE)in the clinical microbiology laboratory.Methods A total of 82 imipenem-resistant PAE clinical isolates from litera-ture[5]was dectected to metallo-β-lactamase (MBLs)by PAE-MHT and Cica-Beta Test kit.Results The sensitivity,speci-ficity and accuracy rate of PAE-MHT was 84.6%,97.2% and 97.6%,and the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy rate of Cica-Beta Test kit was 76.9%,100% and 96.3%,respectively.Two methods had a good consistency.Conclusion Two methods are simple,quick for detecting to metallo-β-lactamase-producing Pseudomonas in clinical laboratories.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antibiotic resistance profiles of the bacterial strains isolated from urine samples in a tertiary Traditional Chinese Medicine hospital in Shanghai in the 12-year period from 2010 through 2021 for better empirical antibiotic use in clinical practice.Methods The clinical data of patients with urinary tract infection,including the species and antibiotic resistance of the bacterial strains isolated from urine samples from January 2010 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Results A total of 5 231 nondupliate bacterial strains were isolated,among which E.coli was the most common(52.8％),followed by Enterococcus spp(19.1％)and Klebsiella spp(11.1％).Most of the urinary isolates(76.0％)were isolated from the elderly aged 60-89,and only 3.1％of the strains were isolated from the young people aged under 44.Most of the bacterial strains were isolated from female patients(75.8％),however,more P.aeruginosa and A.baumannii were isolated from male patients compared to female patients(55.3％vs 44.7％and 67.7％vs 32.3％).About 13.7％of the strains were collected from the Department of Nephrology,more than the strains from any other clincial department.In intensive care unit(ICU),the proportion of E.coli was the lowest,while the proportion of Enterococcus spp was the highest.Enterobacterales showed lower resistance raets to carbapenems,cephamycin,amikacin,cefepime,and β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations.P.aeruginosa showed higher susceptibility rates to carbapenems,aminoglycosides and β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations compared to A.baumannii(≥54.6％vs≤39.8％).Gram-positive cocci were highly sensitive to glycopeptide antibiotics.No SS.aureus or E.faecalis isolates were found resistant to vancomycin.About 2.7％of the E.faecium isolates were resistant to vancomycin.The prevalence of drug-resistant bacteria was the highest in elderly patients,and in the strains isolated from ICU and emergency department.Conclusions Compared with general hospitals,a high proportion of elderly patients were treated in this hospital.It should be more cautious in the treatment of patients with urinary tract infection.The major bacterial species isolated from urine were E.coli,Enterococcus,and K.pneumoniae.Empirical treatment should be prescribed considering patient age and gender as well as the species and distribution of pathogenic bacteria.Urine culture and antibiotic susceptibility testing should be performed proactively.Appropriate antimicrobial agents should be selected according to the results of antimicrobial susceptibility testing.Antimicrobial ressitance surveillance should also be strengthened.

Objective:To explore the application effect of centralized propaganda of ward nurses combined with preoperative visit of full-time nurses in the operating room in patients undergoing knee arthroscopic surgery.Methods:A total of 208 patients who were hospitalized and underwent knee arthroscopic surgery in Sports Medicine Center of Xi'an Honghui Hospital affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from May to June 2019 were selected as research objects. In chronological order, 104 patients admitted in May 2019 were set as the control group and 104 patients admitted in June 2019 were set as the intervention group. The control group received routine surgery-related propaganda and routine preoperative visit, while the intervention group received centralized propaganda of ward nurses combined with preoperative visit of full-time nurses in the operating room. The completion degree of preoperative preparation, awareness rate of health education knowledge of knee arthroscopic surgery, compliance of rehabilitation exercise and the anxiety level before and after visit were compared between the two groups.Results:The completion degree of preoperative preparation and compliance of rehabilitation exercise of the intervention group were higher than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The awareness rate of health education knowledge of knee arthroscopic surgery in the intervention group was 96.1% (100/104) and that in the control group was 81.7% (85/104) , and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P <0.01) . After intervention, the anxiety scores after visit of patients in two groups were lower than those before visit, and that of the intervention group was lower than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:Application of ward centralized propaganda combined with preoperative visit in patients undergoing knee arthroscopic surgery can help patients successfully pass the perioperative period, improve the awareness rate of disease knowledge and enhance compliance of rehabilitation exercise, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
