Tóm tắt
Objectives: Describing the microbial etiology of bacterial meningitis in infants treated at the National Children’s Hospital. Subjects and methods: A retrospective descriptive study on 42 medical records of newborns diagnosed and treated for bacterial meningitis at the Neonatal Center of the National Children’s Hospital from February 2019 - January 2023.
Results: GBS strain accounted for the highest proportion (73.4%), followed by E. coli (13.3%). The antibiotics Aztreonma, Imipenem, Meropenem, Amikacin, Cefotaxime, Moxifloxacin, Vancomycin, Ertapenem, Cefepime were also 100% sensitive to the bacteria tested. Resistance to Clindamycin, Erythromycine, Amoxicillin + Clavulanic Acid, Cefuroxime Aceti was resistant at a very high rate (100.0%). Resistance to the antibiotic Cefazolin appeared at a rate of 50.0%. Gentamycine resistance rate was 40.0%. Piperacillin + Tazobactam, Cefoxitin and Ciprofloxacin were all resistant at a rate of 33.3%.
Conclusion: Common bacterial strains causing meningitis were GBS (73.4%), E. coli (13.3%). The antibiotics Aztreonma, Imipenem, Meropenem, Amikacin, Cefotaxime, Moxifloxacin, Vancomycin, Ertapenem, Cefepime were also sensitive to bacteria causing meningitis in newborns.
