OBJECTIVE: To learn the clinical features of patients infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae in our hospital.METHODS: From 2006 and 2007,a total of 96 inpatients in our hospital that were confirmed to be infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae by sputum culture were collected for a study of their clinical features and drug susceptibility test results.RESULTS: Patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae infection represented 12.7% of the total concurrent pulmonary infection cases,of which,57 Klebsiella pneumoniae infection cases had concurrent pulmonary tuberculosis(TB),and 39 Klebsiella pneumoniae infection cases had no concurrent TB.Drug susceptibility tests showed that the resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae to third generation cephalosporins and quinolones were higher than those reported in the literature,and the resistant rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae to quinolones in Klebsiella pneumoniae infection patients complicated with TB was higher than those without TB.CONCLUSION: Klebsiella pneumoniae infection was more common in patients with low body resistance,which has typical clinical manifestations.Recently,the resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae to the third generation cephalosporin has been increasing,and its resistance to quinolones in patients with pneumonia Klebsiella infection complicated with TB was significantly higher than in those without TB.

OBJECTIVE To understand nosocomial candidal infection among tuberculosis patients and its drug(sensitivity).(METHODS) Totally 6280 clinical samples from Jan 2002 to Dec 2004 were cultured;and part of(positive) ones were tested their drug sensitivity to FC,FLC,KET and ITC.RESULTS From all cultured samples 2767 Candida strains(positive rate was 44.06%) were isolated.From them C.albicans,C.glabrata,C.tropicalis,C.krusei and other Candida were 2006, 344,206,95 and 116 strains,their positive rate was 31.94%,(5.48%),3.28%, 1.51% and 1.85%,respectively.Their drug sensitivity rate to four drugs were as follows: to FC was 93.73%,to TTC 62.76%,to FLC 51.03% and to KET was 47.59%. CONCLUSIONS The condition of(tuberculosis) patient would become serious due to higher dual infection rate by Candida after too long anti-(tuberculosis) treatment.Among the four kinds of drugs the FC has the best anti-candidal activity.
