Background Irrational use of antibiotics could increase the incidence of infection caused by the extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing Enterobacteriaceae. Prevalence of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae varies among hospitals, and its resistance could complicate the treatment, extend the hospital length of stay, and increase the mortality. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae and its association with antibiotic use. Methods This study was a cross sectional study, involving 111 secondary data derived from ESBL resistance test of culture examinations which used the standardized method according to The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) and patients medical records in Central ICU RSCM in 2011. Results Laboratory test results showed that 8 from 111 samples (7,2%) were infected with Enterobacteriaceae producing ESBL. Data were analyzed using chi-square test, p=0,05. Statistical analysis results were RP>1 with the value of significance p=1.000 and 95% CI 1.039; 1.179. Conclusion It is concluded that there is no association between antibiotic use and ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae infection in Central ICU RSCM in 2011.

Background : Increased multidrug resistance of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) compromises the efficacy of treatment of urinary tract infections. Objective : The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of ESBL-producing uropathogens from hospitalized patients with chronic pyelonephritis and to identify the presence of genes involved in the resistance. Methods : A cross-sectional study of 105 patients with chronic pyelonephritis, treated in Kharkiv City Clinical Emergency Hospital, Ukraine was carried. Bacterial isolates were collected, antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates was determined by the Kirby Bauer disk diffusion method and screening for the presence of blaSHV, blaTEM, blaCTX-M ESBL genes was performed by polymerase chain reaction. Results : 84 (80%) patients had positive urine cultures. Eschеrichia coli wаs the most common microorganism isolated. Among them, 29 (25.2%) were found to be ESBL producers. Out of 53 E. coli isolates, 10 (18.9%), 4 (7.5%) and 6 (11.3%) were identified to carry bla(TEM), bla(SHV) and bla(CTX-M) beta-lactamase genes, respectively. The highest resistance was observed against ampicillin (75.9%), ciprofloxacin (48.3%), levofloxacin (41.4%) and gentamicin (41.4%). Beside this, only meropenem (96.6% susceptibility), nitroxolinum (86.2%) and fosfomycin (72.4%) exhibited a good enough activity against ESBLs-producing urinary strains. Conclusion : Isоlation and detеction of ESBL-prоducing strаins are еssential fоr the sеlection оf the mоst effеctive antibiоtic for the empiric trеatment.

Background: Hands of healthcare workers (HCWs) could be colonized by potential drug resistant bacteria like Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase producers (ESBLs) and Carbapenems-resistant (CR) isolates and could become vectors of nosocomial pathogens in healthcare facilities that are associated with an increase of morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of ESBLs and CR isolates from hands of HCWs with their antibiotic susceptibility pattern. Materials and methods: This was a cross-sectional study that included a total of 150 hand swabs collected from March, 2018 to September, 2018 in Gandaki Medical College and Teaching Hospital. Isolation, identification and antimicrobial susceptibility tests were done using standard microbiological procedures. Results: Among the total isolates of 219 obtained from growth positive samples 92/219(42.01%) were Gram negative bacteria (GNB) and the most common were Klebsiella spp 32(34.78%) followed by Escherichia coli 17(18.48%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa12 (13.04%), Acenetobacter spp 11(11.96%), Proteus spp 9(9.78%), Citrobacter spp 7(7.61%) and Enterobacter spp 4(4.35%). The prevalence of ESBLs, CR and ESBLs with Co-resistant to Carbapenems were 19.56%,14.13% and 9.78%, respectively. The most effective drugs for isolates were Nitrofurantoin followed by Amikacin, Tetracycline and Gentamycin. Distribution pattern of the ESBLs and CR isolates among doctors, nurses, laboratory technicians, helpers and basic science faculties were not significant (p>0.05). Conclusions: This report revealed the emerging and moderately high prevalence of ESBLs, CR and ESBLs with Co-resistant to Carbapenems GNB with their antibiotic susceptibility patterns found on hands of HCWs in Nepal. Thus, this study could be helpful in developing proper guidelines on hand hygiene and implementation of infection control measures including contact precautions against the spread of infections by such pathogens in healthcare settings.

Abstract Background: ESBL-PE are emerging worldwide. This study assesses the effect of contact precaution (CP) on ESBL-PE-colonization rates among nurses in 3 hospitals in Beirut, where ESBL is endemic, to define risk factors for colonization, and evaluate the ongoing use of CP to prevent ESBL-PE transmission to healthy nurses. Methods: Cross-sectional, non-randomized study completed in three hospitals. Hospital 1 required CP, Hospital 2 recently stopped CP, and Hospital 3 had stopped it 3 years previously. Questionnaires and stool-collection containers were distributed to all patient care nurses in those 3 hospitals. Returned samples were tested using agar dilution technique. Results: 269 of 733 nurses volunteered; 140 met inclusion criteria (no recent hospitalization, antibiotic use, known ESBL-PE colonization). 15% were ESBL-positive. Compared to nurses from Hospital 3, nurses from Hospital 1 were 59% less likely to be colonized, while nurses from Hospital 2 were 62% more likely to be colonized. Discussion: In hospitals where CP is ongoing for ESBL-positive patients, transmission to nursing staff was reduced. Additionally, a work experience of 2-4 years increased the odds of ESBL-PE colonization in comparison with longer nursing experience. HIGHLIGHTS : • We examined the impact of contact precautions (CP) for Extended spectrum beta-lactamase- producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) colonized patients on rates of ESBL-PE colonization in nursing staff. • We found significantly decreased rates of colonization in nurses from a hospital utilizing CP, and significantly increased rates of colonization among nurses from a hospital that recently • discontinued CP, compared with nurses from a hospital that had discontinued CP 3 years previously. • Findings suggest that contact precaution may be required to prevent ESBL-PE transmission from patients to nursing staff.

Abstract. Wibisono FJ, Sumiarto B, Untari T, Effendi MH, Permatasari DA, Witaningrum AM. 2020. Short Communication: The presence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli on layer chicken farms in Blitar Area, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 2667-2671. This study was aimed to determine the incidence of Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli on layer chicken in Blitar area. This was a cross-sectional study with a total of 205 cloacal swabs of layer chicken taken randomly. The sample was in isolation identification on MacConkey media and ESBL confirmation test produced by Escherichia coli was then carried out by the Double Disc Synergy Test (DDST) method and the VITEK® 2 Compact Automated System method. This study showed that 185 (90.24%) isolates of positive Escherichia coli from a total of 205 samples of cloacal swabs of the layer chicken. The incidence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli in cloacal swabs on layer chicken with the Double Disc Synergy Test (DDST) method and the VITEK® 2 compact automatic method was 13 (7.03%). Results in this study indicated that layer chicken has potential as reservoir for spreading ESBL to public health and needs strict hygienic measures to prevent their transmission to humans.

ObjectivesTo study the correlation between knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) of antibiotic consumption with epidemiology and molecular characteristics of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) carriage, in order to identify modifiable factors and public health interventions to reduce prevalence of multidrug-resistant organism colonisation in the community.DesignCross-sectional questionnaire of KAP towards antibiotic use and collection of stool samples or rectal swabs. ESBL-PE isolates obtained underwent whole genome sequencing to identify resistance genes.SettingA densely populated community in Singapore.ParticipantsThere were 693 healthy community-dwelling questionnaire respondents. Out of which, 305 provided stool samples or rectal swabs.ResultsThe overall knowledge of antibiotic use was poor (mean score 4.6/10, IQR 3.0–6.0). 80 participants (80/305, 26.2%) carried at least one ESBL-PE isolate. The most common ESBL-PE was Escherichia coli sequence type 131 carrying CTX-M type beta-lactamases (11/71, 15.5%). Living overseas for >1 year (OR 3.3, 95% CI 1.6 to 6.9) but not short-term travel, recent hospitalisation or antibiotic intake was associated with ESBL-PE carriage. Interestingly, higher knowledge scores (OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.03 to 3.9) and having no leftover antibiotics (OR 2.4, 95% CI 1.2 to 4.9) were independent factors associated with ESBL-PE carriage in the multivariate logistic regression model.ConclusionsWhile the role of trans-border transmission of antimicrobial resistance is well known, we may have to examine the current recommendation that all antibiotics courses have to be completed. Clinical trials to determine the optimum duration of treatment for common infections are critically important.
