Title: Study for induciabl clindamycin resistance in erythromycin resistance Staphylococcus isolates by the DTest
Abstract: Objective To understand the drug resistance of Staphylococcus to erythromycin and clindamycin and the prevalence of inducible clindamycin resistance of erythromycin-resistant Staphylococcus in our hospital. Methods Kirby-Baucr disk diffusion method were used to detect the drug resistancd of Staphylicoccus, and D-test suggested by CLSI 2004 guidelines were used to determine the induciabl clindamycin resistance in erythromycin resistance Staphylicoccus Results Among 293 cases, D-test positive rate 62.2%, and methecillin resistance staphylococcus (MRS)positive rate 57.7%, Methecillin sensitive staphylococcus positive rate 4.5%. Conclusion The clinical microbiology laboratory should detect the induciabl clindamycin resistance in erythromycin resistance Staphylicoccus by D-test. In order to help physicians to select reasonable macrolidelincosarnide-streplogramin B (MLSB) for Staphylicoccus infection.
