Distribution and Drug Resistance of Common Pathogens Causing Lower Respiratory Tract Infection in Xinjiang Region

CONCLUSIONS: In patients with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in a hospital in Xinjiang, the most common pathogenic bacteria are gram-negative bacilli, mainly Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Both resistant and non-resistant strains showed sensitivity to amikacin and tigecycline. Additionally, staphylococcus accounted for half of the total number of gram-positive bacteria, among which methicillin-resistant strains were more sensitive to vancomycin and linezolid.PMID:38430170
