Abstract

 pathogens and their resistance to antimicrobials is mandatory for success-ful empiric antibiotic treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE of ENTEROBACTERIACEAE isolated from hospital-acquired and community-acquired infections.Methods: In a descriptive-comparative study, during 2010, all clinical isolates of ENTEROBACTERIACEAE and their antibiograms from laboratories of Sina and Bessat Hospitals, Hamadan, west of Iran were included. Hospital-acquired infections were identified by records from infection-control units. A ques-tionnaire containing information about demographic characteristics, source of specimen, kind of En-terobacteriaceae and their ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE was filled for each patient. Data were analysed using SPSS.Results: A total of 574 samples were collected, out of which the most prevalent pathogens were Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Almost all isolates of ENTEROBACTERIACEAE were resistant to ampicillin (98.8%), and the least resistance was to piperacillin (3.7%). In addition, most isolates were resistant to cefazolin, cefixime, and co-trimoxazole. Among third generation cephalosporins, the highest resistance to ceftriaxone and the least resistance to ceftizoxime were observed.19.3% of isolates were resistant to imipenem. In terms of fluroquinolones, nosocomial infections and community acquired infections were resisitant to ciprofloxacin 33% and 4.1% respectively. The rate of resistance in nosocomial infections was higher than that of community-acquired infections.Conclusion: The prevalence of multidrug resistant ENTEROBACTERIACEAE is increasing both in commu-nity-acquired and hospital-acquired infections. Because of propable increasing resistance to fluoro-quinolones and newer betalactams, reassessment of resistance of ENTEROBACTERIACEAE must continue in future years.
