Bacteriological profile (Aerobic) of burn wound infection with its antibiotic sensitivity testing in Silchar medical college and hospital

Burn wounds are highly susceptible to colonization and infection which creates obstacle in proper management of burn victims. Since burn wound infection shows changing trends in pathogenicity of microorganisms as well as their antibiotic sensitivity, hence, it is crucial to perform frequent evaluation of the burn wound to ensure early and appropriate therapy in burn patients. The study was conducted to find out the common organisms in infected burn wound samples and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern. The study was conducted in department of Microbiology and Surgery of Silchar Medical College and Hospital between July, 2015 and June, 2016.
