Patients with brain injuries are at a heightened susceptibility to bacterial pneumonia, and the timely initiation of empiric antibiotic treatment has been shown to substantially reduce mortality rates. Nevertheless, there is a need for knowledge regarding the resistance and prevalence of pulmonary bacterial infections in this patient population. To address this gap, a retrospective study was conducted at a neurosurgical emergency center, focusing on patients with brain injuries. Among the entire patient population, a total of 739 individuals (18.23%) were identified as having bacterial pneumonia, consisting of 1489 strains of Gram-negative bacteria and 205 strains of Gram-positive bacteria. The resistance of to imipenem exhibited a significant increase, rising from 21.74% in 2009 to 96.67% in 2018, and subsequently reaching 48.47% in 2021. displayed resistance rates exceeding 80.0% against multiple antibiotics. The resistance profile of was relatively low. The proportion of reached its peak at 18.70% in 2016, but experienced a decline to 7.83% in 2021. The abundance of Gram-negative bacteria exceeded that of Gram-positive bacteria by a factor of 5.96. , , and are prominent pathogens characterized by limited antibiotic choices and scarce treatment alternatives for the isolated strains.
脑损伤患者对细菌性肺炎的易感性较高,事实证明,及时开始经验性抗生素治疗可大幅降低死亡率。然而,对于该患者群体中肺部细菌感染的耐药性和流行情况仍需了解。为填补这一空白,在一家神经外科急诊中心开展了一项回顾性研究,重点关注脑损伤患者。在整个患者群体中,共有739人(占18.23%)被确定患有细菌性肺炎,其中包括1489株革兰氏阴性菌和205株革兰氏阳性菌。对亚胺培南的耐药性显著增加,从2009年的21.74%升至2018年的96.67%,随后在2021年达到48.47%。对多种抗生素的耐药率超过80.0%。 的耐药情况相对较低。 在2016年达到峰值,为18.70%,但在2021年降至7.83%。革兰氏阴性菌的数量比革兰氏阳性菌多5.96倍。 、 和 是主要病原体,其特点是分离菌株的抗生素选择有限且治疗方案稀缺。
