BACKGROUND In this study,recent trends in the distribution and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria isolated from patients treated at a burn ward between 2006 and 2019 were investigated.AIM To develop more effective clinical strategies and techniques for the prevention and treatment of bacterial infections in burn patients.METHODS Clinical samples with positive bacteria were collected from patients at the burn ward in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital in China between January 2006 and December 2019.The samples were retrospectively analyzed,the distribution of pathogenic bacteria was determined,and the trends and changes in bacterial drug resistance during different period were assessed.Drug resistance in several main pathogenic bacteria from 2006 to 2011 and from 2012 to 2019 was comparatively summarized and analyzed.RESULTS Samples from 17119 patients were collected and analyzed from 2006 to 2019.Surprisingly,a total of 7960 strains of different pathogenic bacteria were isolated at this hospital.Among these bacteria,87.98%(7003/7960)of the strains were isolated from burn wounds,and only 1.34%(107/7960)were isolated from the blood of patients.In addition,49.70%(3956/7960)were identified as Grampositive bacteria,48.13%(3831/7960)were Gram-negative bacteria,and the remaining 2.17%(173/7960)were classified as fungi or other pathogens.Importantly,Staphylococcus aureus(21.68%),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(14.23%),and Staphylococcus epidermidis (9.61%) were the top three pathogens most frequentlyisolated from patients.CONCLUSION In patients treated at the burn ward in this hospital from 2006 to 2019,Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were the predominant clinicalpathogens responsible for bacterial infections. The circumstantial detection anddetailed monitoring of the intensity and growth of different pathogenic bacteria inclinical patients as well as tests of drug sensitivity during burn recovery areparticularly important to provide guidelines for the application of antibiotics andother related drugs.
