Drug susceptibility pattern of various Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates

T Jaya Chandra

Abstract :

Objective: To identify the drug susceptibility pattern of various pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates. Methods: Study was conducted in the department of Microbiology, GSL Medical College Rajahmundry, approved by Institutional Ethics committee. Clinical samples such as pus, swabs, blood, stool were collected from the participants. Samples were inoculated on Blood agar, MacConkey agar and Nutrient agar and identified by Gram stain, motility and various biochemical reactions. Antibiotic sensitivity testing was done on Muller Hinton agar by kiybauer disc diffusion method. Results: Total 32 Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were isolated; the male female ratio was 1. Maximum strains were isolated from Pus followed by respiratory samples, urine and others. Maximum strains showed good sensitivity to Imipenem, Piperacillin/tazobactam. Conclusion: Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection is common in > 60 years age group and drug susceptibility will improve with proper usage of antibiotics
