Resumo: Background and Objectives: Several infections by multidrug-resistant Klebsiella spp. have been report worldwide, because of the capacity of these bacteria in acquire many resistance mechanisms and rapidly spread through clinical units. The aim of this study was evaluate the antimicrobial susceptibility profile of Klebsiella spp. in a hospital of a country town of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Methods: This study investigated the resistance profile of Klebsiella spp. strains isolated between 2014 and 2015, in a regional hospital of a small town. The patient’s charts and microbiological assays were review, including age, sex, date, anatomical site of isolation, origin, and antimicrobial susceptibility test. Results: Forty-two strains were isolated during 2014 and 2015. The positive cultures were from urine (57%), secretions (38%), and blood (5%). Was observed antibiotic resistance in 81% of the strains, and 62% showed multidrugresistance. The resistance profile for β-lactams, mainly cefalosporin and carbapenem, and for aminoglycosides and tetracycline increased in the study period. Conclusion: In this study we showed an increase in antibiotic resistance in a hospital at a small town, highlighting the emergence of carbapenem resistant Klebsiella spp. during 2015. The spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria in this hospital enhance the importance of epidemiological surveillance and establishment of infection control procedures.

El objetivo de essa investigación fue determinar el patrón de sensibilidad antimicrobiana de Klebsiella spp. en un hospital del estado de Rio Grande do Sul. Métodos: Se incluyeron todos los casos con cultivos positivos para Klebsiella spp. dentre los años 2014 y 2015. Los datos de los cultivos microbiológicos y registros médicos, edad, sexo, fecha, sitio anatómico del aislamiento, origen y los resultados de las pruebas de sensibilidad a los antimicrobianos fueron obtenidas del pacientes. Resultados: Durante el período se incluyeron 42 casos, 57% de las vías urinarias, 38% de las secreciones corporales, y 5% del torrente sanguíneo. Se observó resistencia en 81% de los casos y resistencia a múltiples fármacos en 62%. Durante el período se observó una reducción en la sensibilidad a los antibióticos β-lactámicos, en particular de cefalosporinas y carbapenémicos, aminoglicósidos y tetraciclinas. Conclusiones: Los resultados obtenidos muestran un aumento significativo de la resistencia a múltiples fármacos en la localidad, sobre todo la aparición de resistencia a los carbapenémicos ocurrido en 2015. La amenaza de establecimiento local de essas cepas alerta a la necesidad de medidas de control de las infecciones.Justificativa e Objetivos: Infecções por Klebsiella spp. multirresistentes têm sido relatadas globalmente em decorrência da capacidade de aquisição de diversos mecanismos de resistência e rápida propagação destes microrganismos. Assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi descrever a variação do perfil de suscetibilidade aos antimicrobianos de Klebsiella spp. em um hospital no interior do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Métodos: Foram incluídos todos os casos de pacientes com culturas de urina, hemoculturas ou culturas de secreções positiva para Klebsiella spp. entre os anos de 2014 e 2015. Os dados das culturas microbiológicas e dos prontuários médicos foram revisados sendo coletadas as seguintes variáveis, idade, sexo, data, sítio anatômico de isolamento, origem, e resultados do teste de suscetibilidade aos antimicrobianos. Resultados: Durante o período ocorreram 42 casos, sendo 57% de culturas do trato urinário, seguido de secreções 38% e infecções de corrente sanguínea 5%. Foram observadas resistências em 81% dos isolados, e multirresistência em 62%. No período houve significativa redução da suscetibilidade para a classe dos β-lactâmicos, principalmente cefalosporinas e carbapenêmicos, aminoglicosídeos e tetraciclinas. Conclusão: Os dados obtidos demonstram um significativo aumento da multirresistência aos antimicrobianos na localidade, com destaque para a emergência de resistência aos carbapenêmicos ocorrida no ano de 2015. A ameaça do estabelecimento local destes isolados alerta para a necessidade do contínuo monitoramento e implementação de medidas de controle de infecção.Unisc2017-10-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://online.unisc.br/seer/index.php/epidemiologia/article/view/934510.17058/reci.v7i4.9345Revista de Epidemiologia e Controle de Infecção; Vol. 7 No. 4 (2017); 215-220Revista de Epidemiologia e Controle de Infecção; v. 7 n. 4 (2017); 215-2202238-3360reponame:Revista de Epidemiologia e Controle de Infecçãoinstname:Universidade de Santa Cruz do Sul (UNISC)instacron:UNISCporhttps://online.unisc.br/seer/index.php/epidemiologia/article/view/9345/6247Copyright (c) 2017 Revista de Epidemiologia e Controle de Infecçãoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTessmann, Beatriz AdrianaCaballero, Paula AlencastroMartins, Andreza FranciscoPerez, Vinícius Pieta2019-01-21T12:52:25Zoai:ojs.online.unisc.br:article/9345Revistahttps://online.unisc.br/seer/index.php/epidemiologia/indexONGhttp://online.unisc.br/seer/index.php/epidemiologia/oai||liapossuelo@unisc.br|| julia.kern@hotmail.com||reci.unisc@gmail.com2238-33602238-3360opendoar:2019-01-21T12:52:25Revista de Epidemiologia e Controle de Infecção - Universidade de Santa Cruz do Sul (UNISC)false
