Abstract：Objective By analyzing Acinetobacter baumannii of Ventilator-associated pneumonia in NICU, we try to propose the strategy for prevention. Methods We collect the clinical characteristics and drug sensitivity results of the infants who suffered Acinetobacter baumannii of Ventilator-associated pneumonia from Jan 2006 to Feb 2007. Results Acinetobacter baumannii is the main pathogen of VAP , the epidemiology of which is complex. And the carbapenem-resistance strain was isolated from the infant in NICU, which will cause a worse prognosis. Conclusion To prevent Acinetobacter baumannii of VAP in NICU needs more attention of medical workers. Improved the surveillance on this kind of bacteria colony is important to prevent it and a further molecular epidemiology research on colonizing strains, especially the carbapenem-resistance strain will direct the prevention of it NICU.
