【 摘 要 】

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the antibiotic resistance profile, clonal relation and efficacy of antibiotic combinations in nosocomial multidrug resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter baumannii. Materials and Methods: Antibiotic susceptibilities of 84 MDR A. baumannii against tigecycline (TGC), colistin (CL), amikacin (AK), ciprofloxacin (CIP), meropenem (MR), moxifloxacin (MXF), rifampicin (RF) were determined by microdilution method. Clonal relationship was investigated by genotyping using AP-PCR and antibiotyping. Interactions of antibiotic combinations were tested against clonally unrelated strains by the checkerboard (CB) method. The efficacy of the best combinations was also assesed on a selected isolate by the time-kill (TK) method. Results: CIP, RF, MXF, MR, AK resistance was found as 90.47%; 47.62%; 22.62%; 58.33%; 50% respectively; however; CL and TGC were not ascertained. The isolates were distinguished as 25 different antibiotypes and 15 varied molecular patterns. The best synergistic effect was detected in combinations of CL with RF (100%) and MR (100%), in combinations of TGC with RF (53%) against clonally unrelated 15 MDR A. baumannii isolates by the CB method. While CL-RF and CL-MR showed synergy by TK method like CB, on the other hand TGC-RF indicated additive interactions by TK. Conclusion: In this study, both synergy tests showed that CL in combination with RF would be a good option in MDR A. baumannii.
