Resumo: Ants are endowed with great mobility and adaptation to urban environments. Ants may be bacteria-carriers when they lodge in the hospital milieu. Since bacteria are the main microorganisms in hospital infections, current analysis evaluates the sensitiveness profile of bacteria in ants in a hospital in the north-western region of the state of Paraná, Brazil. Antibiogram was performed by the diffusion method in agar with paper discs with antibiotics. Bacteria strains were analyzed by measuring the growth inhibition halos of microorganisms following protocols by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). Results showed that all bacterial strains were multi-resistant to distinct antimicrobial products. Aztreonam and ampicillin were the least efficacious antibiotics in vitro for enterobacteria, followed by penicillin and erythromycin for gram-positive cocci. The need to eradicate insects from the hospital milieu is evident, coupled to design an adequate therapeutic protocol of antibioticotherapy which is one of the factors that contributes towards the prevention of the development of drug resistance. The risk of hospital infection by resistant bacteria will consequently decrease.

Quando presentes em ambiente hospitalar as formigas podem tornar-se carreadoras de bactérias, principal micro-organismo responsável por infecções hospitalares. O objetivo deste estudo buscou avaliar o perfil de sensibilidade de bactérias encontradas em formigas de um hospital do noroeste do Paraná. O antibiograma foi feito pelo método de difusão em ágar com discos de papel contendo antibiótico. Foram analisadas as cepas bacterianas pela medida dos halos de inibição do crescimento do micro-organismo de acordo com CLSI (Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute). Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que todas as cepas bacterianas encontradas apresentaram-se multirresistentes a antimicrobianos distintos. O aztreonam e a ampicilina foram os antibióticos com menor eficácia in vitro para enterobactérias, seguidos de penicilina e eritromicina para cocos gram-positivos. Desta forma fica clara a necessidade de erradicar insetos do ambiente hospitalar e também traçar adequadamente o protocolo terapêutico da antibioticoterapia, que é um dos fatores que contribuem para a prevenção do desenvolvimento de resistência medicamentosa, diminuindo assim o risco de infecção nosocomial por bactérias resistentes.Universidade Cesumar - UniCesumar2014-07-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por ParesArtigo originalapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesq/article/view/3303Saúde e Pesquisa; Vol 7 No 2 (2014): maio/ago.Saúde e Pesquisa; v. 7 n. 2 (2014): maio/ago.2176-9206reponame:Saúde e Pesquisa (Online)instname:Cesumar Diretoria de Pesquisainstacron:CESUMARporhttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesq/article/view/3303/2370Garcia, Tatiane IzauraRamos, Andressa ChitolinaSambati, NatáliaParussolo, LeandroPavanelli, Mariana Felgueirainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-09-04T14:07:40Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/3303Revistahttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesqPUBhttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesq/oainaep@cesumar.br2176-92061983-1870opendoar:2020-09-04T14:07:40Saúde e Pesquisa (Online) - Cesumar Diretoria de Pesquisafalse
