Abstract Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is a common complication of liver cirrhosis. This study was performed to compare the microbiological characteristics of nosocomial and community-acquired episodes of bacterial peritonitis in China. Five hundred and seventy-five strains were isolated from the ascitic fluid of cirrhotic patients from the Beijing 302 Hospital from January 2014 to December 2014. The patients in the community-acquired SBP (n = 264) and the nosocomial SBP (n = 311) groups exhibited significant differences in clinical symptoms (P < 0.01). In both groups, most of the bacteria were Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, coagulase-negative staphylococcus and Enterococcus. There were more frequent gram-positive cocci (G+ C) in the nosocomial group (n = 170). Compared with the community-acquired group, the proportion of Enterococcus was significantly increased in the nosocomial group (9.0% vs. 16.6%, P < 0.05). The resistance rate of the main pathogenic bacteria to the recommended first-line drug in the guideline was very high. Community-acquired and nosocomial SBP groups exhibited differences in clinical symptoms and antibiotic susceptibility tests. Optimal treatments should be provided for these patients. We recommend that cefoperazone/sulbactam or piperacillin/tazobactam should be used for the empirical treatment of SBP.

Objective: There are reports of changing microbial profile of ascitic fluid in spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) and developing resistance of these bacteria to commonly used antibiotics. This study was done to determine the micro-organism causing SBP and their sensitivity to various antibiotics. Setting and Methods: This observational study was done in Medical department of Sheikh Zayed Medical College/Hospital, Rahim Yar Khan from March to November 2019. Thirty five cirrhotic patients with ascites admitted in ward for various reasons and having positive ascitic fluid culture were included in the study. Exclusion criteria was presence of secondary bacterial peritonitis. Ten ml of ascitic fluid was inoculated in blood culture bottle and sent immediately to hospital laboratory. Results: The mean age of these 35 patients was 48.94 ± 13.51 years with a range of 19 to 80 years. Twenty (57.1 %) patients were male and 15 (42.9 %) were female. Bacteria that had caused SBP were E.coli (62.9 %), staph aureus (11.4 %), klebsiella (8.6 %), streptococci (8.6 %), gram positive cocci (5.7 %) and pseudomonas aeruginosa (2.8 %). Imipenem had high sensitivity rate (100 %) along with amikacin (82.9 %) and cefoperazone-sulbactam (68.6 %). Sensitivity of these organisms to other commonly used antibiotics were: ciprofloxacin 57.1 %, ofloxacin 40 %, norfloxacin 37.1 %, ceftazidime 34.3 %, ceftriaxone 31.4 % and piperacillin-tazobactam 25.7 %. Conclusion: We found that E.coli was the commonest bacteria causing SBP, and ceftriaxone and ciprofloxacin have significantly high resistance rate in these patients. Key words: cirrhosis, ascitic fluid, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, antibiotic sensitivity

Background/Aims. Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in patients with cirrhosis. This study aims to determine the microbial agents of SBP and the pattern of antibiotic resistance, in a large number of ascitic samples.Methodology. In a cross-sectional, single center, hospital based study, 1981 consecutive ascitic fluid samples were recruited from 2005 to 2011. Samples were dichotomized into three-year periods, in order to assess the trend of resistance to the first-line empirical antibiotics.Results. SBP was found in 482 (24.33%) of samples, of which 314 (65.15%) were culture positive. The most prevalent isolated pathogen wasE. coli(33.8%), followed bystaphylococcus aureus(8.9%) andEnterococcus(8.6%). No significant changes in the proportion of gram-negative/gram-positive infections occurred during this period. A percentage of resistant strains to cefotaxime (62.5%, 85.7%), ceftazidim (73%, 82.1%), ciprofloxacin (30, 59.8%), ofloxacin (36.8%, 50%), and oxacilin (35%, 51.6%) were significantly increased.E. coliwas most sensitive to imipenem, piperacillin-tazobactam, amikacin, ceftizoxime, and gentamicin.Conclusions. The microbial aetiology of SBP remains relatively constant. However, the resistance rate especially to the first-line recommended antibiotics was significantly increased. This pattern must be watched closely and taken into account in empirical antibiotic treatment.
