OBJECTIVE To investigate the trends of susceptibility of Staphylococcus isolates to antimicrobial agents analyzed by the Shandong provincial nosocomial infection surveillance system. METHODS The data from Jan 2002 to Dec 2005 were summarized and analyzed by the Shandong provincial nosoeomial infection surveillance system. RESULTS During this period, 1644 strains of first isolate from each patient were collected. Major specimens were sputum, wounds, skin soft tissue and urine, which were 39. 72%, 22. 08%, 9. 43% and 7. 54% in total specimens, respectively. The drug-resistant rates of Staphylococcus isolates to antimicrobials were high, except to vancomycin. CONCLUSIONS Antimicrobial resistance of clinical isolates threatens the success of infectious disease treatment. It is very important to promote the rational use of antimicrobial agents for control of resistance and to take effective measures for the prevention of infections. |
