Background:
Antibiotic resistance in Enterobacteriaceae is a serious global concern. Enterobacteriaceae are responsible for a large proportion
of serious, life-threatening infections and resistance to multiple antibiotics in these organisms is an increasing global public
health problem. The quick emergence of resistant bacteria is happening worldwide, risking the efficacy of antibiotics. Execution
of recommended steps, such as rapid diagnosis, implementation of antibiotic stewardship programs and better infection control
measures, are likely to be effective to prevent the spread of ESBLs and other forms of resistance in Enterobacteriaceae.
Objectives:
The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of causative organisms belonging to Enterobacteriaceae among patients
who are suspected having bacterial infections and susceptibility pattern of the isolated bacteria for the commonly used antibiotics.
Material and Methods:
A descriptive Cross-sectional study was conducted. Records of all patients referred or admitted to FMIC and undergone for
culture and sensitivity tests on their clinical samples, including blood, urine, sputum, pus, wound and exudates during January
2016 to December 2016 were reviewed. Data was entered and analyzed with the help of SPSS version 22.0. The approval for the
data collection was obtained from the Ethical Review Committee of FMIC.
Results: A total of 2500 blood culture, 3600 urine, and 3541 cases of pus and vaginal which was suspected bacterial infection.
Totally 6048 cases of blood, urine and miscellaneous identified gram-negative bacteria consecutive.
Conclusion:
All isolated organism was highly resistant to commonly used empirical antibiotics for treatment of Enterobacteriaceae like
Augmentin, Cephalosporin, inappropriate use of antibiotics by physicians is leading to resistance, mortality and morbidity.
