Abstract: Objective To analyze the risk factors and analysis of drug resistance of nosocomial infection in
patients with severe hepatitis and cirrhosis. Methods Clinical data of 2510 cases with severe hepatitis and
cirrhosis in our hospital from September 2013 to September 2015 were retrospectively analyzed, the bacterial
culture of the infection sites was performed. The bacteria were identified by the automated microbiology
system bioMerieux, drug susceptibility test was performed by disk diffusion method (K-B method), ESBLs
was detected by double disk synergy test method. The relationship between the incidence of infection and age,
length of stay, course of disease, basic diseases, complications, invasive operation and use of antibiotics were
analyzed. Results Total of 122 among 2510 cases were infected, the infection rate was 4.86%. The incidence
rate was closely related to age, hospital stays, course of disease, underlying diseases, complications, invasive
procedures and the use of antibiotics. The infection sites were mainly in respiratory tract and accounting for
27.05% (33/122). Total of 139 clinical pathogens including 95 Gram-negative bacilli (68.35%), 30 Gram-
positive cocci (21.58%) and 14 fungus (10.07%) were isolated from the 122 examined samples. Gram-
negative bacilli were sensitive to imipenem and amikacin and had a high rate of resistance to ampicillin,
piperacillin faction and norfloxacin. Klebsiella was also sensitive to ceftazidime and cefoperazone. Gram-
positive cocci was sensitive to vancomycin, non drug resistant strains occured, but it had a high resistance
rates to penicillin, ampicillin, cefoperazone and erythromycin. Conclusions Ages, hospital stays, course of
disease, underlying diseases, complications, invasive procedures and the use of antibiotics were the mainly
risk factors of the nosocomial infection in patients with severe hepatitis and cirrhosis. Clinical pathogens
distributed widely, Gram-negative bacteria like Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella
were mainly included. The infection sites were mainly in respiratory tract. Gram-negative bacilli were
sensitive to imipenem and amikacin and Gram-positive cocci were sensitive to vancomycin.
