Pseudomonas aeruginosa: disseminação de resistência antimicrobiana em efluente hospitalar e água superficial Pseudomonas aeruginosa: spread of antimicrobial resistance in hospital effluent and surface water

Abstract

O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar amostras de efluente do Hospital São Vicente de Paulo com amostras de água do Rio Passo Fundo, quanto ao perfil de susceptibilidade de isolados de Pseudomonas aeruginosa, para inferir sobre a presença de isolados de origem hospitalar em amostras de água superficial. A significância estatística entre os perfis de susceptibilidade das amostras foi testada por análise de variância e a comparação das amostras foi feita por contrastes de interesse. Foram identificados 198 isolados de Pseudomonas aeruginosa a partir das amostras analisadas. O fenótipo de multirresistência não foi observado nas amostras do Rio Passo Fundo, embora alguns isolados resistentes a carbapenêmicos tenham sido identificados, indicando a presença de contaminação com bactérias provenientes de um ambiente sob forte pressão seletiva. Diferenças significativas entre as amostras de água e efluente hospitalar foram observadas a partir da análise de variância por contrastes de interesse.The aim of this study was to compare sewage samples from Hospital São Vicente de Paulo with water samples from the Passo Fundo river, with regard to the susceptibility profile of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates, in order to make inferences about the presence of strains of hospital origin in surface water samples. The statistical significance between the susceptibility profiles of the samples was tested using analysis of variance, and the samples were compared by means of contrasts of interest. One hundred and ninety-eight isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were recovered from the samples analyzed. No phenotype for multiresistance was found in the samples from the Passo Fundo river, although some carbapenem-resistant isolates were identified, thereby indicating the presence of contamination with bacteria derived from an environment under strong selection pressure. Significant differences between the water and hospital effluent samples were observed, based on the analysis of variance by means of contrasts of interest.
