Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the major causes of hospital-acquired infections worldwide. It is widespread in communities and prevalent in hospital and even amongst the livestock.The mortality and morbidity amongst patients with infections associated with MRSA are usually high owing to increasing resistance to several antibiotics. The resistant pattern of MRSA has not been clearly defined in Oleh.

MRSA is a problem within health care organization and in the community. The aim of this study was to identify the prevalence of S. aureus in the anterior nares of health care workers of different occupation including attendants, sweepers, nurses, students, OT technicians and to analyse their antibiogram with reference to methicillin resistance. In this prospective study, total 100 nasal samples were collected from health care workers by using a sterile moistened swab. 20 nasal swabs were taken from each group. MRSA was identified according to CLSI guideline.

Nosocomial infection is a key factor in determining clinical outcomes among patients admitted in intensive care units. Studies on nosocomial infections in ICUs found that respiratory tract infections, blood stream infections, urinary tract infections and soft tissue infections are the common nosocomial infections in ICUs. These organisms causing nosocomial infections are highly resistant to antibiotics. Early recognition of bacteria and appropriate antimicrobial therapy are essential for controlling infection, preventing the morbidity and improve the quality of life.

Pyogenic infections are one of the major complications of surgery and trauma. Both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria have been implicated in these infections which commonly occur under hospital environment resulting in significant morbidity, prolonged hospitalization and huge economic burden. Hence periodical monitoring of bacterial profile and their antibiotic susceptibility pattern is important. A retrospective study was undertaken to identify the microbial profile with their antibiogram among the pus culture isolates in a teaching tertiary care hospital from January 2018 to December 2018.

To determine the most common organisms causing surgical site infections and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern. This study was carried out retrospectively in the Department of Microbiology SKIMS Medical College and associated hospital, Srinagar for a period of two years (January 2017–December 2018). A total number of 194 pus samples of inpatients from different wards as well as of out-patients were processed using standard microbiological techniques. Of the 194 pus samples processed, 94 samples were culture positive (48.4%).

The early detection of Methicillin resistance along with its risk factors is of prime importance in the prognosis of S. aureus infections. The marked difference between the antibiogram of MRSA and MSSA isolates creates a difficult scenario in initiating treatment for S. aureus infections. The study aims to identify the risk factors and antibiotic sensitivity pattern of MRSA from pus samples. The present study was conducted at the Department of Microbiology, Kanyakumari Medical College from September 2015 to August 2016 from 100 non-duplicate S. aureus isolates from pus samples. The S.
