| Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) is a prevalent infectious agent regularly reported from hospital intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Annually, Multi-drug-resistant (MDR) isolates present a significant clinical challenge. The present study aimed to determine the prevalence of antiseptic resistance genes and the level of resistance to quaternary ammonium and biguanide compounds in A. baumannii isolates obtained from patients of north Khorasan province. All obtained A. baumannii isolates were examined for in vitro susceptibility to antiseptic agents and the presence antiseptic resistance encoding genes including qacE, qacEΔ1, and blaOXA-23. The broth microdilution method detected the Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MIC) against antiseptic compounds. The majority of A. baumannii infections were observed in ICU patients (n=63, 84%). MDR and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) phenotypes were present in 53.2% and 46.7% of cases, respectively. Among 75 isolates, 48 (64%) had at least one resistance gene. This includes 24 (32%) isolates with only the qacE gene and 5 (6.7%) isolates with the qacEΔ1 gene. Coexistence of qacE and qacEΔ1 genes were found in nine (25.3%) isolates. The mean minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of chlorhexidine digluconate (CHG) was statistically significantly higher in isolates harboring antiseptic resistance genes than in isolates without such genes (81.4 µg/ml versus 27.9 µg/ml, P=0.001). The increased MIC against antiseptic agents among A. baumannii isolates is a big medical concern. The presence of antiseptic-resistant genes and increased minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) levels against antiseptic agents in MDR and XDR A. baumannii emphasizes the critical need for comprehensive monitoring of all A. baumannii isolates in hospital settings to ensure efficient infection control. | ||
