Abstract
- Background: Diabetic foot ulcer infection (DFI) is a frequent complication of diabetes. Objective: The aim is to determine the clinical and microbiological profiles and the antibiotic resistance phenotype, analyze the DFIs risk factors. Methods: The present study is a retrospective, single-center study conducted at a teaching hospital in the northeast China. 242 cases of patients with diabetic foot disease Wagner grade 0–5 over 2 years were screened and the recovered data consisted of the clinical features, risk factors, etiology and drug resistant profiles. Results: The total percentage of Gram-negative rods (GNRs) and Gram-positive cocci (GPCs) was 138 (54.92%) and 113 (45.02%). The most common isolates were Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus , accounting for 22.37% and 19.74%, respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed that the duration of ulcer, duration of antibiotic use, Wagner classification and osteomyelitis were risk factors for multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria infection ( p
