Abstract: ] Objective Toinvestigatebacterialinfectionanddrugresistanceinchildrenwith
community-acquiredpneumonia ( CAP ), andtoprovidethebasisforearlyclinicaldrugtherapy.
Methods Theworkinvestigated1328CAPaffectedinfantsinourhospital.Theirsputum
samplesweregotthroughasepticnegativepressureattractionandthenbacterialcultivationwas
madewithagardilution.ThebacterialdrugresistancewasmeasuredthroughbothKirby-Bauer
discdiffusionandbrothdilutionmethods.Results Theresultsrevealed676positiveinfantsand
thepositiverate50.9%.Thetopfivebacteriaranged : Streptococcuspneumonia ( 204 / 680 ),
Klebsiellapneumonia ( 130 / 680 , including8 ESBLs ), Escherichiacoli ( 104 / 680 , including5
ESBLs ), Staphylococcusaureus ( 88 / 680 , including10MRAS ), andHaemophilusinfluenzae ( 36 /
