Abstract

Background: Infections caused by Acinetobacter baumannii in the hospital cause many serious consequences when the rate of its antibiotic resistance is increasing, especially carbapenem. Objective: to determine the rate of antibiotic resistance, sample types, interventional procedures, the prevalence of A. baumanii infection in clinical departments in the hospital. Methods: The design of a cross-sectional study investigated 76 isolated cases of A. baumannii infection, which were performed at the Hospital of Medical University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Ho Chi Minh City from May 2020 to November 2020. Results: The rate of resistance to imipenem and meropenem was 93.4%. A. baumannii infection departments: ICU (54.0%). Types of infections: Lower respiratory tract infections (71.1%), blood infections (36.8%), skin and soft tissue infections (23.2%). Major sample types: Sputum, bronchial fluid (64.5%). Type of interventional procedure: respiratory intervention (75.0%), intravenous intervention (36.5%). Conclusion: The carbapenem resistance was 93.4% (imipenem and meropenem) mostly in patients with lower respiratory tract infections.
