Infantile Septicemia Induced by Coagulase Negative Staphylococcus / 中华医院感染学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To investigate the major pathogenic bacteria and drug resistance in the infantile septicemia and to provide laboratory evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment. METHODS The venous blood plate was used. RESULTS Totally 328 isolated strains were assayed with French Bio-Merieux API System.Of them,203 strains of coagulase negative Staphylococcus(CNS),being 61.9%.115 strains(56.6%) were(S.epidermidis).45 strains(22.1%) were S.haemolyticus,and 43 strains(21.1%) were S.lugdunensis.The isolated rate of meticillin resistant coagulase negative Staphylococcus(MRCNS) was 35.5%.The drug test for MRCNS showed multiple drug-resistance. CONCLUSIONS MRCNS is the major pathogen in infantile septicemia.The detectable rate of MRCNS is high.Glycopeptide antibiotics are the first-choice drugs for MRCNS infection.
