Abstract
Objective To retrospectively investigate the differences of lung infection caused by multi-drug resistant (MDR) gram negative bacteria and non-MDR gram negative bacteria,to study the impact of MDR bacteria in patients,and to provide reference for clinicians to choose treatment.Methods The MDR gram-negative bacteria and non-MDR gram-negative bacteria isolated from qualified respiratory specimens,blood,pleural effusion,and other clinical specimens in our hospital from January 2012 to December 2012 were collected.The cases were recruited when they were clinically diagnosed as lung infection.The differences between MDR group and non MDR group were analyzed.Results MDR gramnegative bacteria and non-MDR gram-negative bacteria distributed in different departments.There was statistical significance in hospital stays,serum albumin,the average daily cost of hospitalization,early use of antibiotics,early use of carbapenems,and mortality between MDR gram negative bacteria and non-MDR gram-negative bacteria (P <0.05).There was no statistical significance in age,hemoglobin,duration of infection between two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusions MDR gram-negative bacterial infection is a clinical challenge in selection of antibiotic,it increases mortality and hospital costs,we need to pay close attention. Key words: Multi-drug resistant ; Non-multidrug-resistant ; Gram-negative bacteria
