Current status of klebsiella pneumoniae causing nosocomial infection and drug resistance

OBJECTIVE To approach the drug resistance of clinically isolated Klebsiella pneumoniae(KPN),to provide the scientific accordance for the reasonable application of the antibiotics.METHODS Rerospective investigation method was applied to analyze the drug resistance of 136 strains of K.pneumoniae.RESULTS The detection rate of the extended spectrum β-lactamases(ESBLs)-producing KPN was 42.6%.KPN was sensitive to imipenem with the drug sensitivity rate of 99.3%.And which to ampicillin was the highest with 96.3%.CONCLUSION The drug resistance status of KPN is very serious.Hospital should strengthen the monitoring,prevention and control of it.
