摘要

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating issue that can render illnesses more difficult to treat if effective antibiotics become resistant. Many studies have explored antibiotic resistance in bacteria (ARB) in wastewater, comparing results with clinical data to ascertain the public health risk. However, few investigations have linked the prevalence of ARB in hospital wastewater (HWW) with these outcomes. This study aimed to bridge this gap by assessing the prevalence of ARB in HWW and its receiving waters. Among the 144 isolates examined, 24 were obtained from each of the six sites (untreated wastewater, aeration tank, sedimentation tank, effluent after disinfection, upstream canal, and downstream canal). A significant portion (87.5 %) belonged to the Enterobacteriaceae family, with Klebsiella pneumoniae as the predominant species (47.9 %). The antimicrobial sensitivity testing (AST) showed that 57.6 % of the isolates were resistant to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (AMX), the most prevalent antibiotic used within the studied hospital. The total resistance rate before and after treatment was 27.7 % and 28.0 %, respectively, with an overall multi-drug resistance (MDR) rate of 33.3 %. The multiple antibiotic resistance index (MARI) range varied between 0.0 and 0.9. The outpatient ward's three-day mean bacterial infection cases showed a significant association (Spearman's rho = 0.98) with the MARI in the sedimentation tank. Moreover, a strong correlation (Spearman's rho = 0.88) was found between hospital effluent's MARI and the seven-day mean inpatient ward case. These findings indicate that applying wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) to hospital wastewater could provide valuable insights into understanding ARB contamination across human domains and water cycles. Future studies, including more comprehensive collection data on symptomatic patients and asymptomatic carriers, will be crucial in fully unravelling the complexities between human health and environmental impacts related to AMR.
