초록

목적: 최근 신생아 집중 치료실(neonatal intensive care unit, NICU)에 입원한 신생아들의 병원내 감염 중 그람 음성 간균(Gram negative bacilli, GNB)에 의한 패혈증이 증가하고 있다. NICU에서 정기적인 대변의 감시 배양을 통해 GNB에 의한 장관 집락화가 같은 균에 의한 패혈증으로 이행되는 지를 확인하고, 집락화된 GNB 병원균의 종류를 확인하며 집락화에 관여하는 위험인자를 조사하고자 하였다. 방법: 2007년 10월부터 2008년 5월까지 고신대학교 복음병원 신생아 집중치료실에 입원한 86명의 환아를 대상으로 하였다. 모든 환아에게 총 3회의 대변 채집을 계획하였는데, 출생 후 첫 대변과 2주 간격으로 2회 채집을 계획하였다. 장관의 GNB 집락화와 관련된 위험 인자들은 대상 환아들의 의무기록을 열람하거나 연관된 논문의 고찰을 통해 설정하였다. 결과: 86명의 환아 중 22명(25.6%)이 GNB에 의한 장관 집락화가 있었으나 이 환아들을 퇴원까지 추적하였을 때 GNB로 인한 패혈증은 없었다. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobcter cloacae, Citrobacter freundii가 가장 많이 분리되었다. 분리된 GNB 중 약 89% (32/36)는 amikacin에 감수성이 있었다. GNB 에 의한 장관 집락화의 가능성은 집락화 당시 수유량이 적을 때 증가한 반면, 첫 수유 시기가 지연될 때 그 가능성은 감소하였다. 결론: 저자들은 NICU에 입원한 신생아에서 장관 감시배양을 통해 장관에 집락화된 GNB를 확인하였으나 연구에 포함된 환아에서 GNB에 의한 패혈증이 발생하지 않았으므로 집락화가 패혈증으로 이행되는 지를 확인할 수는 없었다. 집락화시 적은 수유량(feeding volume at colonization day)이 집락화의 위험요인이었으므로 장관 영양의 진행이 원활하지 않을 경우 장관의 GNB 집락화 가능성을 고려해야 한다.

Purpose: The incidence of nosocomial infection caused by Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) has increased in neonatal intensive care units (NICU). This study identified the progression of sepsis caused by GNB colonization and analyzed the risk factors associated with using periodic stool culture surveillance. Methods: We included 86 newborns admitted to the NICU, Kosin University Gospel Hospital from October 2007 to May 2008. Three stool specimens were collected right after birth and two more were collected at 2 week intervals. The risk factors related to GNB colonization were established from each medical record and related references. Results: The incidence of colonization by GNB was 22 (25.6%) per 86 neonates but none had culture-proven sepsis. The three most commonly isolated GNB were Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter cloacae, and Citrobacter freundii. Approximately 89% (32/36) of isolated GNB were susceptible to amikacin. The probability of GNB colonization increased in infants who were fed a small volume during enteral feeding. In contrast, delayed enteral feeding resulted in a decreased probability for GNB colonization. Conclusion: Colonized GNB in the intestine was confirmed by enteric surveillance culture of newborns admitted to the NICU. However, we found no evidence of culture-proven GNB sepsis. As lower feeding volume on the colonization day is a risk factor for GNB colonization, the chance for GNB colonization should be considered when feeding intolerance is present.
