Abstract：Objective To observe the clinical distribution and antimicrobial resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii(A. banmannii) infection. Methods One hundred and twenty-one strains of A. banmannii from January 2006 to December 2007 were collected and drug sensitivity tests were performed. Results Sixty-three strains (52.07%) of A. baumannii were from respiratory unit and intensive care unit. Sixty-seven strains(55.37%) were from old patients. The resistant rates to the third generation cephalosperin and ciprofloxacin were beth more than 50.0% ; Drug resistance rate of A. baumannii to panipenem/betamipron, imipenem/cilastatin and cefoperazone-sul-bactam was 3.31%, 8.26%, and 13.23% respectively. Conclusion Carbapenem and cofoperazone/sulhactam still have a strong antimierobial activity against A. banmannii. Antimicrobial agents should be used rationally to decrease multiple antibiotic resistant strains.
