Background. Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram negative rods are increasingly being reported in sub-Saharan Africa. Molecular investigations play an important role, alongside other measures, in controlling nosocomial infections attributed to these organisms. This study aimed to determine the common extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) and carbapenemases genes, and clonal relationship in MDR Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli. Methods. Fifty-four MDR isolates collected at the Aga Khan University hospital, Nairobi in the month of August 2012 formed the study. These were picked after an increase in the number of resistant strains during the said period was experienced. Results. blaCTXM was present in 41 (74%) of the isolates, while blaSHV was detected in 18 (33%) and blaTEM in 13 (24%) of the isolates. Nine (16.7%) of the isolates harboured all three ESBL genes and 8 (14.8%) harboured two. Eight of the isolates (all E. coli) had none of the ESBL genes tested. Two isolates harboured carbapenemases genotypes: one had blaNDM-1 and the other blaSPM. Sequencing matched CTXM-15 and TEM-1 genes in all the isolates harbouring blaCXTM and blaTEM respectively. However, there was diversity in blaSHV with SHV-11 and SHV-12 genes predominant. The isolates were non-clonal. Conclusions. The isolates mostly harboured blaCTX-M-15 while only a few had carbapenemases genes. Lack of clonality suggests these were the stable circulating strains at the time of the study.

Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamases

Introduction: Some strains of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae produce Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBL) may be responsible for various infections such as urinary infections. These Sick people are treated in the very serious cases by association antibiotics to class to betalactamins, aminosids and quinolons. But proliferation of multi-drug resistant strains involves decreasing therapeutic success. That’s why epidemiological study must be done in all laboratories of bacteriology. Purpose: The aim of the study was to research the resistance phenotypes of our E. coli and K. pneumoniae ESBL strains compared to others families of antibiotics. Material and methods: Thirty two (32) Extended Spectrum betalactamases E. coli and K. pneumoniae strains isolated from either hospitalized patients or sick people who came for consultation were studied. Susceptibility to antimicrobial agents was determined using an antibiotic disk (Bio-Rad) diffusion method on Mueller-Hinton agar (Bio-Rad). The results were interpreted according to the Standards of the French Antibiogram Committee (CA-SFM). Results: The study showed that most of these strains were multi-drug resistant. They were resistant to many beta-lactamines antibiotics. E. coli strains were also resistant at 70,34% to aminosids, at 96,72% to quinolons, at 58,3% to cotrimoxazol, at 26,1% to chloramphénicol and at 21,4% to colistin ; about K. pneumoniae, they were resistant at 72,6% to aminosids, at 88,95% to quinolons, at 86,7% to cotrimoxazol, at 44,4% to chloramphénicol and at 25% to colistin. But all these strains were sensitive at 100% to l’imipenem.

Resistesi antibiotik meningkat secara global dalam beberapa tahun ini, terutama kejadian Escherichia coli (E.coli) dan Klebsiella pneumoniae (K.pneumoniae) penghasil Extended Spektrum Beta Lactamases (ESBL). Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk memberikan gambaran prevalensi keberadaan dan antibiogram isolat E.coli dan K. pneumoniae penghasil ESBL di rumah sakit tersier di Bali. Penelitian retrospektif potong lintang ini dlikaukan pada Januari 2018- Desember 2020 di Rumah Sakit Umum Pusat Sanglah, Bali. Identifikasi bakteri dan uji sensitivitas antibiotik dilakukan dengan alat otomatis Vitek®2 Compact. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan dari 2972 isolat, 1067 (63,82%) isolat adalah E. coli penghasil ESBL dan 902 isolat (69,39%) adalah K. pneumoniae penghasil ESBL. Isolat penghasil ESBL ditemukan terbanyak pada non-ICU (89,39%). Bakteri E.coli penghasil ESBL menunjukkan sensitivitas > 80% terhadap Amikacin, Ertapenem, Meropenem, Nitrofurantoin, Piperacillin-tazobactam, dan Tigecycline. Sedangkan, K. pneumoniae penghasil ESBL menunjukkan sensitivitas > 80% terhadap Amikacin, Ertapenem, Meropenem, dan Tigecycline. Penelitian ini menyoroti tingginya prevalensi E.coli dan K.pneumoniae penghasil ESBL di rumah sakit rujukan tersier di Bali. Analisis yang seksama dari antibiogram kedua spesies penghasil ESBL tersebut akan membantu menyusun kebijakan penggunaan antibiotik dan pencegahan, pengendalian penyebaran bakteri penghasil ESBL.Kata Kunci: Escherichia coli; Klebsiella pneumoniae; Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamases; ICU dan Non-ICU
