| Popis: | This study was performed to elucidate genetic relatedness and molecular resistance mechanisms of AmpC-producing multidrug-resistant Proteus mirabilis isolates in University Hospital of Split (UHS), and define efficient antibiotics in vitro. A total of 100 nonrepeated, consecutive, amoxicillin/clavulanate- and cefoxitin-resistant P. mirabilis isolates were collected, mostly from urine (44%) and skin and soft-tissue samples (30%). They were all positive in cefoxitin Hodge test and negative for extended spectrum beta- lactamase production. Pulsed field gel electrophoresis identified four clusters and two singletons, with 79% of isolates in dominant cluster. Molecular characterization and I-CeuI analysis of representatives revealed blaCMY-16 gene located on chromosome, and insertion element ISEcp1 positioned 110 pb upstream of blaCMY-16 starting codon. They also harbored blaTEM-1, except one with blaTEM-2. They were all resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, all but one to quinolones, and 81% to all aminoglycosides, while 77% were susceptible (S) and 22% intermediate (I) to piperacillin/tazobactam, and 4% were S and 68% I to cefepime. Only 15% were S to ceftolozane/tazobactam. Meropenem, ertapenem, ceftazidime/avibactam, temocillin, and fosfomycin were 100% efficient in vitro. This is the first report of blaCMY-16 gene in P. mirabilis from hospital samples in Croatia. The findings are in accordance with Italian and Greek reports. The clonal nature of outbreak suggests the high potential of clonal spread. Alternative agents should be considered to spare carbapenem usage. |
