Abstract

Objective To analyze the changes of bacteria stains in acute obstructive cholangitis with suppuration (AOSC) and sensitivity of different bactera strains to antibiotics in recent decade.Methods The data of bacterial susceptibility of AOSC patients and sensitivity of different bacteria strains to antibiotics in our hospital collected from 1999 to 2001 (group A,n =54) and from 2009 to 2011 (group B,n =62) were analyzed.Resules In group A,there were 29 male and 24 female with age range of 35 ~ 82 and mean age of 57.5 years,and in group B,there were 23 male and 39 female with age range of 39 ~ 87 and mean age of 68.2 years.There were no differences in bacteria strains infected between two groups.However,there was a trend of increase in the proportion of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus infection,and a trend of decrease in the proportion of Escherichia coli infection.The degrees of sensitivity of Escherichia coli to ciprofloxacin,ceftazidime,cefaclor and ceftriaxone were statistically different from those observed ten years ago ; and the degrees of sensitivity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to ceftazidime and cefaclor were statistically different from those detected ten years ago as well.In recent years,the sensitivity of bacteria to antibiotics was on a downwards trend.Conclusions The pathogens of acute obstructive and suppurative cholangitis did not obviously change in recernt decade,but the sensitivity of bacteria to antibiotics was lowered. Key words: Acute obstructive suppurative cholangitis; Bacterial culture; Antibiotics; Susceptibility
