Abstract

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important agent of opportunistic infection in aquatic environments. Our aim was to evaluate the occurrence and antimicrobial resistance of P. aeruginosa in the water of swimming pools in northern Greece. Water samples were obtained from hydrotherapy pools, jacuzzis/spas and swimming pools. A total of 16.6% (45/271) of the samples were positive for P. aeruginosa. Of the amenities examined, the most contaminated were hydrotherapy pools (25% of samples positive). A small percentage of isolates (20.0%) showed resistance to antibiotics. Compared with other studies, the prevalence of P. aeruginosa in swimming pools was relatively low, while the antibiotic resistance pattern of these community isolates was not high.

摘要

铜绿假单胞菌是水生环境中机会性感染的重要病原体。我们的目的是评估希腊北部游泳池水中铜绿假单胞菌的发生和抗生素耐药性。采集水疗池、按摩浴缸/温泉和游泳池的水样。共有 16.6%（271 份样本中的 45 份）的样本呈铜绿假单胞菌阳性。在所检查的设施中，污染最严重的是水疗池（25%的样本阳性）。一小部分分离株（20.0%）表现出对抗生素的耐药性。与其他研究相比，游泳池中铜绿假单胞菌的流行率相对较低，而这些社区分离株的抗生素耐药模式并不高。
