The de development of bacterial resistance during selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) is controversial. We studied effects on bacterial resistance one year before and during a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of SDD in a surgical intensive care unit. We randomized patients within two different topical regimens (PTA, PCA) or placebo, administered four-times daily to both the oropharynx and gastrointestinal tract. All patients received intravenous ciprofloxacin (200 mg b.d.) for four days. Both SDD regimens successfully reduced aerobic Gram-negative intestinal colonization. There was no increase in resistance of Enterobacteriaceae or Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Acinetobacter calcoaceticuss developed multi-resitance over one year, but differences between groups were not significant. We detected a shift towards Gram-positive organisms. Oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus increased in concert with ciprofloxacin resistance, from 17 to 80.7%, and frequencies of resistance were significantly higher in SDD patients (P
