Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the clinical features and distribution of pathogen in the elderly patients of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) complicated with septicemia.

Methods

The clinical data, distribution of pathogen and drug resistance of 66 elderly patients with AIDS in Hengxian People’s Hospital from January 2011 to December 2016 were analyzed, retrospectively.

Results

The symptoms of cough, sputum, fever, poor appetite, anaemic, angular, anemia, hyponatremia, hypoalbuminemia, liver function damage were common in 66 patients, many cases were complicated with oral fungal infections, lung infection and senile chronic diseases, with high fatality rate. There were 55 cases with fungal infection, among which Penicillium marneffei was the most common, and was sensitive to all anti-fungal drugs. Ten cases were infected with Gram-negative bacteria, among which Salmonella was the most common. The resistance rate of pathogenic bacteria to amoxicillin, tobramycin, sulfamethoxazole/methoxybenzidine, cephalothiophene and gentamycin were all high. Two cases with Gram-positive bacterial infection were 100% sensitive to clindamycin, minocycline, tycorrine, fusidic acid, vancomycin, quinoluptin/dafuptin, furantoin and benzooxicillin.

Conclusions

The clinical symptoms of senile AIDS patients with sepsis in Hengxian county, Guangxi were complex and diverse, with many complications and high fatality rates. The main pathogenic bacteria are fungi, with high sensitivity to antifungal drugs.
