自从出现了一种新的艰难梭菌强毒株,其特征为毒素型III、北美PFGE 1型(NAP 1)、限制性内切核酸酶分析组BI型和PCR核糖体型027(027型),在北美和欧洲报告了多次暴发[1,2]。第一批报告来自加拿大,其中魁北克省是最早和最严重的影响[3]。在美国,至少有38个州受到新出现的菌株的影响[4]。在英国和荷兰爆发之后,该菌株在整个欧洲迅速传播,目前包括18个国家[5]。一个令人担忧的新进展是欧洲的暴发,可归因于携带ermB基因的克林霉素耐药NAP 1/027菌株(MIC,>256 mg/L)[6]。克林霉素一直被认为是一种“保护性”抗生素的发展,C。艰难梭菌相关疾病(CDAD)可归因于NAP 1/027,但对这种药物的耐药性增加了C.在-
Since the emergence of a new virulent strain of Clostridium difficile characterized as toxinotype III, North American PFGE type 1 (NAP1), restriction endonuclease analysis group type BI, and PCR ribotype 027 (type 027) multiple outbreaks have been reported in North America and Europe [1, 2]. The first reports were from Canada, where the province of Quebec was the earliest and most severely affected [3]. In the United States, at least 38 states have been affected by the new emerging strain [4]. Outbreaks in the United Kingdom and The Netherlands have been followed by a rapid spread of the strain throughout Europe, now including 18 countries [5]. A worrisome new development is outbreaks in Europe attributable to clindamycin-resistant NAP1/027 strains (MIC, >256 mg/L) that harbor the ermB gene [6]. Clindamycin has been considered to be a "protective" antibiotic for the development of C. difficile-associated disease (CDAD) attributable to NAP1/027, but resistance to this agent increases the risk of C. difficile in-
