Antimicrobial susceptibility profile of Acinetobacter species at tertiary care hospital in Central India
Dr. Manish Nagendra
Abstract :
Introduction :–Acinetobacterspecies have become the most common etiology of hospital acquired infections due to the present frequent use of wide spectrum antibiotics.1Infections due to resistant Acinetobacterbaumanniiisolates cause difficulties in treatment.
Objective :–current study was to determine the susceptibility rate of different Acinetobacterspecies, isolated from various clinical samples of patients.
Methods :–43 strains of Acinetobacterspecies were isolated from different clinical specimens and fully characterized by standard procedures with Antimicrobial susceptibility patterns as per guidelines of CLSI.
Results: Majority of isolates of Acinetobacterspecies 22 (51.16%) wereobtained from specimens of pus. The isolated pathogens showed 100% sensitive to Polymyxin –B and Colistin.
Conclusion: The present studied showed that aminoglycoside,quinolone and carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter species is increasing gradually.
