%X UNASSIGNED: To analyze the detection rate, in vitro susceptibility to antibiotics, and carbapenemase types of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) strains in the clinical samples of a hospital and to provide support for the prevention, control and treatment of CRE-related infections.
UNASSIGNED: Clinical specimens were examined according to the operating procedures of bacteriological tests. Species identification and in vitro drug susceptibility testing were performed on the isolated strains. Carbapenemase inhibitor enhancement testing, which combined the use of 3-aminobenzeneboronic acid and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, was conducted to identify the types of carbapenemase in the CRE strains.
UNASSIGNED: In 2021, 2215 CRE strains were isolated from 157196 clinical samples collected in this hospital, presenting a detection rate of 1.4% (2215/157196). A total of 1134 non-repetitive strains of CRE were isolated from 903 patients. The main sources of samples were respiratory tract (494/1134, 43.6%), secretion (191/1134, 16.8%) and blood (173/1134, 15.3%) samples. The cases with the same CRE strain isolated from the samples of two, three and four sites accounted for 12.5%, 4.9%, and 1.1%, respectively. The most common species was Klebsiella pneumoniae (883/1134, 77.9%), followed by Enterobacter cloacae complex (107/1134, 9.4%) and Escherichia coli (96/1134, 8.5%). The rates of resistance to polymyxin B and tigecycline of different species of CRE strains were not significantly different ( P<0.05). Serine carbapenemase-producing strains, metallo-β-lactamase-producing strains, and those producing both enzymes accounted for 82.6% (809/979), 17.2% (168/979), and 0.2% (2/979), respectively.
UNASSIGNED: CRE strains are frequently isolated from samples collected from the respiratory tract, secretion, and blood. The most common strain is serine carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae, which has a high resistance rate to various antimicrobial drugs, and risk factors of its associated infections deserve more attention.
