摘　　要：Objective:To find a proper method to assess colistin resistance in multidrug resistant Gram negative bacteria(MDR-GNB)on a routine basis in resource limited settings.Methods:Clinical samples were processed.MDR-GNB were identified and were examined for colistin resistance by colistin broth elution method,colistin agar method,and colistin disk elution screening method.Broth microdilution method was used the gold standard.Results:A total of 10235 clinical samples were processed,in which 857(8.4%)MDR-GNB were identified.The very significant errors,categorical agreement,major errors,positive predictive values,negative predictive values,specificity and sensitivity of all the phenotypic methods were 5.5%,0%,94.4%,100%,99.6%,100%and 94.4%,respectively for the detection of colistin resistance.The colistin elution screening method was cheap and easy to perform with similar results to broth microdilution method.Conclusions:All the evaluation methods for colistin resistance showed similar results.So the laboratories can choose any method for detection of colistin resistance.However,we recommend colistin disk elution screening method because,it is easy and cheap and can be performed in limited resources.
