RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This research study was undertaken to investigate antimicrobial resistance patterns and the prevalence of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). The study focuses on common microorganisms responsible for HAIs and explores emerging challenges posed by antimicrobial drug-resistant isolates. METHODS: A comprehensive analysis of 123 patients with HAIs, hospitalized in surgical department and intensive care unit (ICU) at Imam Khomeini Hospital, Ilam, Iran, was conducted over a six-month period. Pathogenic bacterial isolates, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA), were isolated and subjected to antibiotic susceptibility testing. RESULTS: The study findings revealed a significant prevalence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) isolates, of which 73.3% were MRSA. Notably, 6.7% of S. aureus isolates exhibited resistance to vancomycin, indicating the emergence of VRSA. Respiratory infections were identified as the most prevalent HAI, constituting 34.67% of cases, often arising from extended ICU stays and invasive surgical procedures. Furthermore, patients aged 60 and above, particularly those associated with MDR, exhibited higher vulnerability to HAI. CONCLUSIONS: This research sheds light on the intricate interplay between drug resistance and HAI, highlighting the imperative role of rational antibiotic use and infection control in addressing this critical healthcare challenge.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Nosocomial infections (NIs) are a major challenge worldwide. Identification of antibiotic resistance pattern extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) were the objectives of this study. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, the antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of bacterial isolates collected from patients with NIs in ICU was determined. Overall, 42 Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from different infection sites were used to determine phenotypic tests of ESBLs, Metallo-ß-lactamases (MBLs) and CRE. Detection of ESBLs, MBLs and CRE genes were performed by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. RESULTS: From 71 patients with NIs, 103 different bacterial strains were isolated. The most frequently isolated bacteria were E. coli (n = 29; 28.16%), Acinetobacter baumannii (n = 15; 14.56%), and K. pneumoniae (n = 13; 12.26%). Also, the rate of multidrug-resistant (MDR) isolates was 58.25% (60/103). Based on phenotypic confirmation tests, 32 (76.19%) isolates of E. coli and K. pneumoniae produced ESBLs, and 6 (14.28%) isolates were identified as CRE producers. PCR showed the high prevalence of the blaCTX-M (n = 29; 90.62%) in ESBL genes. In addition, blaNDM was detected in 4 (66.66%), blaOXA-23 in 3 (50%), and blaOXA-48 gene in 1 (16.66%) isolates. The blaVIM, blaKPC, and blaIMP genes were not detected in any of the isolates. CONCLUSION: The Gram-negative bacteria E. coli, A. baumannii, and K. pneumoniae with high resistance levels were the most common bacteria causing NIs in the ICU. This study for the first time identified blaOXA-11, blaOXA-23, and blaNDM-1 genes in E. coli and K. pneumoniae in Ilam city of Iran.

RESUMO

Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) is now considered a highly resistant pathogen to various types of antibiotics. Therefore, tracking the source of its prevalence and continuous control is crucial. This study aimed to determine antibiotic resistance and perform various molecular typing methods on clinical isolates of A. baumannii isolated from hospitalized burn patients in Shahid Motahari Burn Hospital, Tehran, Iran. Hospital isolates were confirmed by phenotypic and molecular methods. Then the sensitivity to different antibiotics was determined using the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method. In order to perform molecular typing, three-locus dual assay multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR), multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA), and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) methods were used. Among the 60 isolates collected, the frequencies of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) isolates were 90 and 10%, respectively. The most effective antibiotics were colistin with 100% and tigecycline with 83.33% sensitivity. Isolates were 100% resistant to piperacillin/tazobactam and cephalosporins, and 68.3% were resistant to carbapenem. The results of multiplex PCR showed five groups that international clone I (IC I) and IC II were the most common. The MLVA method identified 34 MLVA types (MTs), 5 clusters, and 25 singletons. Multilocus sequence typing results for tigecycline-resistant isolates showed seven different sequence types (STs). Increasing antibiotic resistance in A. baumannii isolates requires careful management to control and prevent the occurrence of the pre-antibiotic era. The results of this study confirm that the population structure of A. baumannii isolates has a high diversity. More extensive studies are needed in Iran to better understand the epidemiology of A. baumannii.
