Prospective Study on Staphylococcus aureus with their Antibiotic Susceptibility Pattern from Pus (Wound) Sample

Dr. Rajesh Soni

Abstract :

 Objective: To screen various Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA & MSSA) pathogens isolates from pus samples and to determine their antibiotic sensitivity pattern against the commonly used antibiotics. Materials and Methods: Pus sample were collected from 200 different patients and transported to laboratory and culture and antibiotic susceptibility was performed. Result: A total 150 Staphylococcus aureus were isolated from 350 wound specimen , out of which 60 were MRSA and 90 MSSA . Conclusion: Antibiotic sensitivity test of isolates can serve as a tool for physicians to start an empirical treatment and minimize the drug resistance problem.
