Abstract :
The incidence of sepsis and death caused by sepsis increases each year. Beta-lactam antibiotics is widely used to treat many types ofinfections because of its minimum side-effects. As a result of the widespread use of broad spectrum cephalosporin, an ExtendedSpectrum ß-lactamase (ESBL) enzyme produced by K. ozaenae has developed. Since then, other types of ESBL have been found andspread around the world relatively fast. The prevalence of infection caused by ESBL-producing bacteria varies in each country. InIndonesia, the incidence of ESBL in Enterobacteriaceae is still not widely known. This research aims to investigate the prevalence ofESBL in third generation cephalosporin usage among sepsis patients in The Department of Internal Medicine of RSUD Dr. SoetomoSurabaya. This crossectional study is conducted in The Department of Internal Medicine RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya betweenNovember 1st 2011 and February 29th 2012. Demographic characteristics of patients and the basic diagnose were obtained from themedical record. Specimen were collected to examine bacterial culture and antibiotic sensitivity testing, complete blood laboratoryexamination, complete urine examinationm liver function tests and kidney function test. Data were analyzed using SPSS 18.0. Of the30 sepsis patients, 2 were ESBL-positive (6.66%). ESBL-positive incidence were in the age group 41-50 and 61-70 years old, allmale. Pneumonia and hepatobilliary disease were the underlying disease. ESBL-positive culture were obtained in blood and sputumisolates. ESBL-producing bacteria were Klebsiella pneumoniae dan Enterobacter coxacie with the most sensitivity towardslevofloxacin, imipenem and meropenem.(FMI 2013;49:244-251)
