Title: Extended-spectrum β-Lactamases-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli:Distribution and Drug-resistance Analysis
Abstract: OBJECTIVE To study the distribution and characteristic about drug resistance of extended-spectrum β-lactamases(ESBLs) producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli for guiding the clinical drug using. METHODS Using K-B agar diffusion method and confirmed test to detect the drug resistance and distributions of ESBLs-producing K.pneumoniae and E.coli. RESULTS Among 582 K.pneumoniae and E.coli isolates,128(22%) were ESBLs-producing strains.For E.coli,the ratio was 17.5%,while K.pneumoniae was 28.3%.The sensitive rate of K.pneumoniae to imipenem was 100%. CONCLUSIONS ESBLs-producing K.pneumoniae and E.coli are the most common species causing infections,and imipenem is the best choice.
