Objective. To study of the incidence and species diversity of antibiotic-resistant non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria (NGNB) circulating in Rostov-on-Don in 2010–2017.
Materials and methods. A total of 1917 NGNB strains obtained from patients of 5 multidisciplinary hospitals in Rostov-on-Don and from outpatients were examined. Conventional methods for microbiological, epidemiological, statistical analysis and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry analyses were used.
Results. The detection rate of NGNB in the city hospitals ranged from 5 to 28%. P. aeruginosa, S. maltophilia, and A. baumannii were most common (in descending order). The isolated NGNBs in the city hospitals were polyantibiotic resistant.
Conclusion. Monitoring the antibiotic resistance of non-fermenting bacteria strains will be able to optimally adjust antibacterial drug regimens in healthcare facilities, to develop anti-epidemic measures, and to assess the risks of infections associated with healthcare and caused antibiotic-resistant NGNB strains.
