BACKGROUND: Antibiotic resistance is a growing concern for bloodstream infections (BSIs), especially with the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) gram-negative bacteria. In this study, we aimed to assess the pattern of colistin susceptibility using the colistin broth disc elution (CBDE) method among carbapenem-resistant gram-negative clinical isolates from blood cultures in a high burden tertiary healthcare setting in East Delhi. METHODS: A total of 106 carbapenem-resistant gram-negative clinical isolates were tested. The most common isolates were Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter species, and Klebsiella oxytoca by CBDE method. RESULT: All the carbapenem resistant gram-negative bacterial blood culture isolates showed intermediate colistin susceptibility. This was statistically significant by chi-square test (p<0.5). CONCLUSION: This study highlights the need to monitor colistin resistance trends in the face of increasing antimicrobial resistance. Accurate surveillance of emerging colistin resistance is crucial for effective management of BSIs caused by carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria.
背景:抗生素耐药性是血流感染(BSI)日益关注的问题,尤其是出现多药耐药(MDR)革兰氏阴性菌时。在这项研究中,我们旨在评估高负担三级保健环境中来自血培养的碳青霉烯类耐药革兰氏阴性临床分离株中使用多粘菌素肉汤稀释洗脱(CBDE)方法的多粘菌素敏感性模式。
方法:共检测了 106 株碳青霉烯类耐药革兰氏阴性临床分离株。通过 CBDE 方法,最常见的分离株为肺炎克雷伯菌、大肠杆菌、肠杆菌属和产酸克雷伯菌。
结果:所有碳青霉烯类耐药革兰氏阴性菌血培养分离株均表现出中介度多粘菌素敏感性。卡方检验(p<0.5)表明这具有统计学意义。
结论:本研究强调了在面临日益增加的抗菌药物耐药性时需要监测多粘菌素耐药趋势。准确监测新出现的多粘菌素耐药性对于有效管理由碳青霉烯类耐药革兰氏阴性菌引起的 BSI 至关重要。
