Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical characteristics and risk factors for refractory drug-resistant Pseudo-monas aeruginosa infection and evaluate the prognosis so as to provide theoretical bases for effective prevention and control of the refractory drug-resistant P.aeruginosa infection.METHODS A total of 95 patients who were di-agnosed with refractory drug-resistant P.aeruginosa infection and were treated in People's Hospital of Guangdong Province from Jan.2019 to Dec.2023 were assigned as the infection group.Meanwhile,95 patients who did not have drug-resistant P.aeruginosa infection,matched by the age and hospitalization period,were chosen as the non-infection group in a case-control(1∶1 ratio).The basic information and clinical data were collected from the two groups of patients.The characteristics and risk factors for the drug-resistant P.aeruginosa infection were ana-lyzed,and the prognosis of the patients was evaluated.RESULTS Among the clinical isolates of drug-resistant P.aeruginosa,78 were isolated from respiratory secretions;there were 59 patients from intensive care unit(ICU),13 patients from respiratory medicine department and 8 patients from geriatrics department.Fever,dyspnea,moist rales and cough were the major clinical manifestations.The proportions of patients with history of respirato-ry tract disease(P<0.001),renal disease(P=0.008),nervous system disease(P=0.005),diabetes mellitus(P=0.017),hepatic disease(P=0.007),previous utilization rate of aminoglycosides(P=0.002)and previous u-tilization rate of no less than 3 types of antibiotics were higher in the infection group than in the non-infection group.Multivariate analysis showed that the history of respiratory tract disease(OR=2.813,95%CI:1.366 to 5.792,P=0.005),history of diabetes mellitus(OR=2.465,95%CI:1.129 to 5.382,P=0.024)and history of nervous system disease(OR=2.386,95%CI:1.151 to 4.944,P=0.019)were the risk factors for the drug-resist-ant P.aeruginosa infection.The mortality rate of the infection group was 30.53%,higher than 6.32%of the non-infection group(x2=18.527,P<0.001).CONCLUSIONS The mortality rate of the patients with drug-resistant P.aeruginosa infection is high.The history of respiratory tract disease,history of diabetes mellitus and history of nervous system disease are the major risk factors for the infection.It is necessary for the hospital to strengthen the awareness of prevention of the drug-resistant P.aeruginosa infection so as to curb the hospital-associated infection.
