Medical Importance

     Pseudomonas aeruginosa is common gram negative rod – shaped bacterium, a species of considerable medical importance, P. aeruginosa is prototypical "multi drug resistant (MDR) Pathogen" that is recognised for its ubiquity, its intrinsically advanced antibiotic resistance mechanisms, and its associatation with serious illnesses – especially nosocomial infection such as ventilator – associated pneumonia and various sepsis syndromes. This study was conducted from March 2014 to July 2014, the patients were males and females. Total samples of 613 patients, selected from burns wards and general surgery wards, the samples were sending to teaching laboratories from the same hospital. The present study showed that the prevalence of sensitivity revealed that amikacin had the highest sensitivity (89,6%), followed by cefotaxime (66.2%), the optimal aminoglycosides in combination therapy with B-lactams was amikacin, followed by tobramycin and gentamycin, highest sensitivity rate showed that (95.2%) was found in the combination of amikacin with imipenem and piperacillin, (71.4%) were amikacin combination with cefotaxime ,(85.7%) were gentamycin with piperacillin , (71.4%) were gentamycin with cefotaxime, (95.2%) were  tobramycin with piperacillin,(76.2%)were tobramycin with carbenicillin, resistance of bacterials associated with reduced aminoglycoside accumulation the current study indicated that pseudomonas aeruginosa  was the most prevalent in burns and general surgery infection, these infections generally require treatment with a combination of antimicrobials inoder to achieve a greater baetericidal effect and reduce the levels of resistance .

ABSTRACT ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE OF NON - FERMENTABLE GRAM - NEGATIVE BACTERIA CAUSING PNEUMONIA IN PATIENTS WITH MECHANICALLY VENTILATION Background: Ventilator - associated pneumonia is a very common nosocomial infection in the intensive care unit. Many bacteria cause ventilator - associated pneumonia, in which non - fermentative Gram - negative bacteria such as Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, etc., are the leading pathogens and have high antibiotic resistance. Methods: A cross sectional descriptive study was conducted on non - fermentative bacteria strains causing ventilator - associated pneumonia which were isolated at the Surgical Intensive Care Unit Department of Nghe An General Friendship Hospital from January 2020 to June 2021. Results: A total of 120 strains of non - fermenting Gram - negative bacteria were isolated. Of these, 85 strains were Acinetobacter baumannii, 31 strains was Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Acinetobacter baumannii has a resistance rate of more than 70% with all tested antibiotics, of which the highest resistance is to Ceftriaxone 96.9%. Pseudomonas aeriginosa was resistant to all tested antibiotics, with the highest resistance to Gentamycin80.0%, the lowest resistance to Piperacillin/Tazobactam 32.3%. Conclusion: Non - fermentative bacteria are the main pathogens of ventilator - associated pneumonia. The most common pathogens were Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. These bacteria were highly resistant to the tested antibiotics. In which, A. baumannii resisted over 70% of the tested antibiotics, and P. aeruginosa resisted all tested antibiotics with varying degrees from 32.3 to 80.0%.

Global Epidemiology

Antibiotic resistance has increased markedly in gram-negative bacteria over the last two decades, and in many cases has been associated with increased mortality and healthcare costs. The adoption of genotyping and next generation whole genome sequencing of large sets of clinical bacterial isolates has greatly expanded our understanding of how antibiotic resistance develops and transmits among bacteria and between patients. Diverse mechanisms of resistance, including antibiotic degradation, antibiotic target modification, and modulation of permeability through the bacterial membrane have been demonstrated. These fundamental insights into the mechanisms of gram-negative antibiotic resistance have influenced the development of novel antibiotics and treatment practices in highly resistant infections. Here, we review the mechanisms and global epidemiology of antibiotic resistance in some of the most clinically important resistance phenotypes, including carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae, extensively drug resistant (XDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and XDR Acinetobacter baumannii. Understanding the resistance mechanisms and epidemiology of these pathogens is critical for the development of novel antibacterials and for individual treatment decisions, which often involve alternatives to β-lactam antibiotics.

Although antibiotic resistance has come to the fore in the media and clinical practice relatively recently, it is by no means a new issue; Alexander Fleming discussed the risks of penicillin resistance more than sixty years ago, but even he was behind the times. Bacteria have been competing with each other for millions of years, producing compounds which kill or inhibit other species—it is not surprising that bacteria have evolved defence mechanisms. Current major concerns are the rise of pan-drug resistant gram-negative organisms and the spread of multi-drug resistant TB. Bacterial cells turn over rapidly—this rate of reproduction leads to many errors in DNA replication. Many of these mutations are deleterious to the organism, but others confer new properties, such as changing the structure of an enzyme. The application of selection pressure in the form of antimicrobial therapy leads to the survival of mutants that have randomly acquired resistance mechanisms. There are two useful ways to categorize resistance mechanisms: by how bacterial cells acquire them and by the physical mechanism of action. The types of acquisition have important infection control ramifications. Resistance can be subdivided into three separate categories: ● Intrinsic resistance— mechanisms hard coded into all members of a bacterial species at the chromosomal level. If an organism’s antibiogram suggests susceptibility to an agent to which it should be intrinsically resistant, further work should be done to check that the identification is correct. Examples include gram-negative bacteria being resistant to glycopeptides due to the outer cell membrane, anaerobes being resistant to aminoglycosides due to lack of an uptake mechanism, and amoxicillin resistance in Klebsiella due to beta-lactamase production. ● Mutational resistance—resistance that arises randomly due to DNA replication errors in conjunction with selection pressure applied by antimicrobial agents. This is the basis of the majority of the mechanisms detailed in this chapter. ● Transferrable resistance— mutational resistance that is passed horizontally from the bacterium in which it arose to another cell, possibly of a different species entirely. This happens through either transposons (DNA that incorporates into the bacterial chromosome) or plasmids (rings of DNA that replicate independent of the main chromosome).

Rapid detection of antimicrobial resistance in both surveillance and diagnostic settings is still a major challenge for the clinical lab, compounded by the rapid evolution of antibiotic resistance mechanisms. This study compares four methods for the broad detection of antibiotic resistance genes in Enterobacterales isolates: two multiplex PCR assays, (the Streck ARM-D® beta-lactamase kit and the OpGen Acuitas AMR Gene Panel u5.47 (research use only (RUO)), and one microarray assay (the Check-MDR CT103XL assay), with whole genome sequencing as a reference standard. A total of 65 Gram-negative bacterial isolates, from 56 patients, classified by phenotypic AST as showing resistance to beta-lactam antimicrobials (ESBL positive, resistance to third generation cephalosporins or carbapenems), were included in the study. Overall concordance between the molecular assays and sequencing was high. While all three assays had similar performance, the OpGen Acuitas AMR assay had the highest overall percent concordance with sequencing results. The primary differences between the assays tested were the number and diversity of targets, ranging from 9 for Streck to 34 for OpGen. This study shows that commercially available PCR-based assays can provide accurate identification of antimicrobial resistant loci in clinically significant Gram-negative bacteria. Further studies are needed to determine the clinical diagnostic role and potential benefit of such methods.
