Objective To analyze the current drug resistance and risk factors of hospital acquired pneumonia( HAP) due to extended spectrumβ-lactamase ( ESBLs) producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, and to estimate the prevalence trend of ESBLs producing strains. Methods FromApril 2007 to January 2008, 140 patients of Xinhua Hospital with HAP due to E. coli and K. pnermoniae were enrolled.Among them, 88 patients were with ESBLs producing strains and 52 patients were with non-ESBLs producing strains. Risk factors were analyzed by comparing between these patients. The rate of drug resistance was determined by antibiotic sensitive test. Fifty-three ESBLs producing strains were genotyped by random amplified polymorphic DNA ( RAPD) . Results The rate of drug resistance of ESBLs producing strains washigher than that of non-ESBLs producing strains. ICU stay, use of third- and forth-generation cehpalosporin were found to be the independent risk factors by multivariate analysis with logistic regression. By RAPD, 37 ESBLs producing E. coli strains were divided into 27 types and 16 ESBLs producing K. pneumoniae strains were divided into 13 types. Conclusions ICU stay, use of third-generation and forth-generation cehpalosporin remain as major risk factors in the HAP due to ESBLs producing E. coli and K. pneumoniae.RAPD is an economic, quick and credible method for epidemic analysis
ObjectiveTo explore the risk factors of community-acquired urinary tract infections caused by extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli). MethodsProspective and retrospective investigation methods were combined, to investigate the hospitalized patients diagnosed with community-acquired urinary tract infections caused by ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University during July 2012 to December 2014. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 19.0 software. The potential risk factors were analyzed by chi-square test or Fisher exact probability method, then, factors with statistical significance identified by single factor analysis were further analyzed by non-conditional logistic regression. ResultsA total of 106 patients were included and divided into a ESBLs group (68 cases) and a control group (38 cases) according to the drug sensitivity test results. The results of single factor analysis indicated: there were significant differences between the ESBLs group and the control group in the use of antibiotics within three months before admission (χ2=11.292, P=0.001), the use of third generation cephalosporin (χ2=11.033, P=0.001), more than three kinds of diseases that could cause urinary tract obstruction (χ2=16.464, P=0.000), anemia (χ2=5.956, P=0.015), indwelling catheter (χ2=6.695, P=0.010), urinary system operations (χ2=9.730, P=0.002). The results of further non-conditional logistic regression analysis showed that more than three kinds of diseases that could cause urinary tract obstruction (OR=14.675, 95%CI 2.699 to 79.796, P=0.002), anemia (OR=7.976, 95%CI 1.785 to 35.632, P=0.007), the use of antibiotics within three months before admission (OR=7.057, 95%CI 1.597 to 31.175, P=0.010), the use of third generation cephalosporin (OR=6.344, 95%CI 1.145 to 35.146, P=0.034) and indwelling catheter (OR=3.844, 95%CI 1.058 to 13.967, P=0.041) were independent risk factors of community-acquired urinary tract infections caused by ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli. ConclusionThe risk factors of community-acquired urinary tract infections caused by ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli include more than three kinds of diseases that could cause urinary tract obstruction, anemia, the use of antibiotics within three months before admission, the use of third generation cephalosporin, and indwelling catheter. The use of antibiotics, especially the third generation cephalosporin, should be strictly controlled, the time of indwelling catheter should be reduced, and the anemia should be corrected, in order to reduce the incidence of community-acquired urinary tract infections caused by ESBLsproducing Escherichia coli.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the burden of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKPN) and carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli (CRECO), two types of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), in pediatric patients in Jiangxi Province.MethodsA retrospective investigation was carried out for the distribution of CRKPN/CRECO in pediatric (neonatal group and non-neonatal group) and adult patients in 30 hospitals in Jiangxi Province from January 2016 to December 2018, and the changing trends and detection situations of different patients and types of hospitals were compared and analyzed.ResultsFrom 2016 to 2018, the annual resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli to carbapenem in pediatric patients were 5.89%, 4.03%, and 4.24%, respectively, showed a downward trend (χ2trend=5.568, P=0.018). The resistance rate of Klebsiellae pneumoniae and Escherichia coli to carbapenem in neonatal group was higher than that in non-neonatal group (8.44% vs. 3.40%; χ2=63.155, P<0.001) and adult group (8.44% vs. 3.45%; χ2=97.633, P<0.001). In pediatric patients, the 3-year carbapenem resistance rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae was higher than that of Escherichia coli (9.10% vs. 2.48%; χ2=128.177, P<0.001). In non-neonatal pediatric patients, the 3-year resistance rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli to carbapenem in maternity and children hospitals was higher than that in general hospitals (4.35% vs. 1.36%; χ2=25.930, P<0.001). CRKPN/CRECO detected in pediatrics were mainly isolated from sputum (31.64%), blood (24.36%), urine (13.82%), and pus (8.36%).ConclusionAlthough the overall resistance rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli to carbapenem in pediatric patients showed a downward trend, that in neonatal patients was still high, and the monitoring and prevention and control measures of CRE should be strengthened in neonatal patients.
