Bacteriological Study of the Prospective Wound samples and antibiotic Sensitivity pattern of isolates

Dr. Arun Kumar Gupta, Mr. Amit Kumar Singh

Abstract :

Introduction: Antibiotic treatment is given to protect from infection against different microorganisms,however, routine use of empirical treatment has resulted in widespread antibiotic resistance and development of antibiotic resistant genes. Objective: To identify the bacterial pathogens isolated from various wound sample and to determine their antibiotic sensitivity and resistance pattern against the commonly used standard antibiotics. Materials & Methods: All the wound sample submitted to microbiology laboratory were processed as per standard microbiological procedures and antibiotic sensitivity tests were performed on the isolates as per guidelines of clinical and laboratory standards institute (CLSI). Result: From 300 total specimen 154 positive specimens were isolated from all specimens, out of which 106 were Gram positive and 48 were Gram negative bacteria. Conclusion: High frequency of resistance against commonly used antibiotics such as penicillin as shown in the present study indicates a serious problem in the treatment of infections by gram positive and negative organisms. ?erefore continuous surveillance is needed and treatment based on antibiogram report is essentia
