Analysis of drug resistance of acinetobacter baumannii

Wang Can-can

Abstract

Objective To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of Acinetobacter baumanii.Methods The minimum inhibitory concentrations(MIC) of 101 acinetobacter baumannii isolated were measured by microdilution method.Results 101 Acinetobacter baummanii were mainly isolated from ICU,and most of them were from sputum.Antimicrobial susceptibility tests showed the resistant rate of Acinetobacter baumannii to TrimethoprimSulfamethoxazole was the highest(91%),followed by gentamicin(86%),cefotaxime(86%).Conclusion The drug resistance of Acinetobacter baummanii is serious.Carbapenem is the preferred antibacterial therapy for Acinetobacter baumannii.
